Chamundeshwari Temple | Mysore | A Special Day Of Life

Tour of Mysore  was not going that well planned the way I had planned, but sometimes some things are not in our hands. Mysore King had died the day before I landed in Mysore and it was state mourning for 3 days, most of places either without any visitors which was good thing for me, specially seeing the population status of India or some places were closed.
