Guys don't miss this place .The temple is really beautiful and stunning view of KRS back waters from this place. Best place to visit sun set , earlier this temple was submurged in back waters later it is rebuilt on the bank so it's really exciting to view the Structure. We spent around a hour here.

Around 2pm we reached Mysore and visited historical palace . Entry fee was around 40₹ . We saw all corners of palace and it was priceless . Now the time fill our stomach we went to daba and ordered roti curry .After lunch we headed towards himadgopalswamy , Gundlupete Which is around 78 kms from Mysore. On the way don't miss to have watermelons near najungudu.

Reach this place at 4:30pm , remember last bus is on 5pm so be there before 5PM. Own vehicles are not allowed only govt buses are allowed here. I bet you that u will enjoy the scenery while traveling in bus and for sure u can spot wildlife such as bison, deers , elephants so be ready with your camera to take some pictures.

Once u reached temple u will be having around 1 hr of time to next bus in that time visit the temple and take a blessings of gopalaswamy , start observing for wildlife on the hills and experience the please and cool air breeze.
