Mysore is the Karnataka state’s second largest city. It is also Mysore Division and Mysore District’s headquarters. It is located along the base of the popular Chamundi Hills. Mysore means “the abode of Mahisha,” wherein Mahisha pertains to Hindu mythology’s demon, Mahishasura.
The city is popular for the festivities they practice during the Dasara Festival.Mysore is regarded as the Kingdom of Mysore’s capital until the year 1947. The Wodeyar Dynasty was its ruler at that time. This is except for a short period during the 18th century where Tipu Sultan and Haidar Ali were the ones who took the seat of power.
Its cultural growth is attributed to the Wodeyars who were patrons of culture and art. This paved the way for the city to be regarded as the Cultural Capital of Karnataka.
