Some Sites from Hotel to Textron Facility

Very Typical of all shops on all streets



There are only 2 official lanes -  You drive anywhere where the vehicle can fit

Neat looking temple downtown

Check out what is used to hold up concrete forms

Yes - They are tree limbs! - very typical of multiple floor buildings

Group traveling to Mysore

Stopped half way to Mysore for a traditional Indian breakfast


The Ranganatha Swamy Temple in Srirangapatna enshrines Lord Vishnu as Ranganatha. It is said that the Ganaga chieftain, Tirumalaiya built this temple in 894 AD.





This is a spot where they believe the universe focuses its power - Good things can happen to you.

One of the priests sitting in front of one of the many gods

Starting to get hot.  Not allowed to wear shoes.  My little piggies were getting too hot.


Crowd was always constant to see a very large statue of a god

Oldest and tallest church in Mysore

Bee's nest in every peak - Need a BB gun and and watch the excitement

Many (and I mean many) people make a living by selling everything you can think of.
