The Chamundeshwari Temple is a Hindu temple located on the top of Chamundi Hills about 13 km from the palace city of Mysuru in the state of Karnataka in India.

An ashram in Mysore. It has beautiful gardens with bonsais among other plants. You can buy some herbal tea for an infusion, grown in the gardens.
Anjali Ashram has a unique architectural design. The entrance to the ashram is marked by an outer mandapa. On both sides of this mandapa, there are two footpaths in a curved fashion, taking you to the inner area directly. If you walk directly through the mandapa, you reach another structure used for meditations and prayer meetings. Then comes the hostel for inmates. Then comes the sanctum. The last building is the sanctum sanctorum, containing the chapel and the residential arrangements for the inmates. The small cottages for the inmates are built on either side of the sanctum sanctorum. There is a footpath that takes you directly to the other gate from the sanctum sanctorum.
A horse-racing venue. The Mysore Derby season is from November to February and again from May to July. There's a golf course at the middle.
150 sand sculptures on display. It is not worth visiting unless it is on your way to another location.
