There was a stop for break fast at 9:00 and then we reached srirangapatnam(18 km from Mysore) at around 12:00 there we saw tippusultans palace (called rang mahal ruined now it was ruined by britisher’s in search of gold and )...and then we saw the place where tippu died. A siva temple which was 800 years old....and then come the ranganatha temple which is 1200 years old the temple really good (as you see beauty of the south Indian temples like big temple area and large gopuram) here we can see vishnu sleeping on adisesha called as ranganatha. This temple is in the banks of river cauvery.and the swamy is called adi ranga. There are three rangas adi ranga, madhya ranga and sri ranga(in srirangam near trichy,tamilnadu) all the three situated in the banks of cauvery.
We headed towards Mysore where we went to st.philomenas church the height of the church was 165 feet....went to cauvery stall (not so worthy you may find same kind of stalls in Bangalore itself may be if you are not in Karnataka you may think of some good stuff like sarees and sandal wood)then had lunch which it ill cost you around 40-50 per person....then we headed to the real beauty the Mysore palace the work done was really good what i suggest you is to get a personal guide of get those audio tapes there to listen in order to really know its importance and it is better to visit the palace on a holiday night in order to see the real beauty of the palace with the lightings....
Then it was chamudeswari temple.Chamudi devi who killed mahishasura(Mysore name came after him).The temple is really good and even the Siva temple was 2000 yrs old (swayam bhu linga as told by the priest there)
We went to the beautiful brindavan gardens which are 18 KM from Mysore there the boating was a good experience then the musical fountain was good(may be we would have seen the same kind in many places now)..the attraction was the krishnarajasagara dam on river Cauvery constructed by sir.visvesvarayya. this dam is manly constructed for irrigation purpose....then at night the beauty of the brindavan garden was really good...
We returned Bangalore at 9:00P.M and took 3 hrs to reach Bangalore back....overall it was a really nice experience.

in Brindavan Gardens, we also had a small boat ride(Rs 7 per person, one side).
that person scolded us as we were playing wid water. :P
Your narration is good. Really I am interested to read it, but the background color and font color are glaring a little bit.
If you don't mind could you change the combination. So, that it will be easy and interesting to read the content.
Sorry, if I have mistaken.
Hey. thanx for that. Tell me how it is now. :)
