HERITAGE PRESERVATION
Mysuru, the second largest city in Karnataka, is a place that beautifully blends splendor of history with the living vibrancy of the traditions and culture, which is reflected in the lives of the residents. In spite of imbibing modern developments, Mysuru is still connected to its rich heritage roots, making it the Heritage Capital City. Mysuru is also known as Garden City, Ivory City, City of Yoga and City of Palaces. At the center of the city is the most famous Mysore Palace, which is the home of Royals of Wadiyar family, who ruled Mysore as their capital. Maharaja Krishnaraja Wadiyar IV developed Mysore into a beautiful city with wide roads, magnificent buildings and elegant scenic parks. Mysuru houses around 200 structures with heritage tag and 20+ major tourist spots. The cultural ambience combined with architectural and heritage structures earned it the sobriquet – Cultural Capital and it is one of the major tourist hubs. Approximately 3.7 million tourists visit Mysuru every year.
The crowning glory of Mysuru, Sri Chamundeshwari Temples is an enchanting place surrounded by natural beauty. In the forest, there are varieties of trees, birds and animals. While going up the hills, a bird’s eye view of Mysuru can be seen and several prominent places be spotted. It offers a spectacular scene when the Palace and its surroundings are illuminated during the Dasara and other occasions. NMF has done many clean up programmes to clear up the plastic waste. NMF has also done cleaning of the roadway, beautified with Flower Concrete Barricade Pots and planted saplings along the road.
