Mysore Karnataka Royal Palace is one of the grandest in India. Lovingly restored in 1912 after a fire burned it down. Itââ¬â¢s sheer size and extravagance is breathtaking. And no expense was spared in restoring it. The Maharaja spent summer evenings at the nearby palace situated atop Chamundi Hill which can be viewed from Mysore sitting majestically at the top of Chamundi hill.
