Mysore Palace

We saw the Marahaja's Palace last night so this afternoon we went to see it in the day light.  As with much of the architecture it is a mixture of Muslim, Hindu and colonial styles.  Rather spectacular, but I would to want to live there.


We had a guided tour around, but I am nearly splendid-palaced out.  Besides which we had to give our cameras in so I had nothing to distract me!


Walking back to the hotel there were plenty more street traders,


Sacred cows in the street


I wonder if the red horns are a form of traffic protection??


Not many slouching backs here...it needs to be ramrod straight to carry things on your head without hands.
