Take a tour of Mysore Palace in India – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats.

In southern Indian region of Mysore, lies a lavish and luxuriant palace of great royal history.

The Mysore Palace is famous as a meeting place for Indian royals, as well as for housing the rulers of Mysore.

The construction of this elaborate structure started towards the end of the 19th century and took around 15 years to be completed.

Mysore Palace incorporates an interesting fusion of Hindu, Muslim, Rajput, and Gothic architectural styles.

Lovely pink domes, tall towers, beautiful arches and facades with gorgeous lattice work make it absolutely stunning.

One of the most famous Indian festivals, Dasara, is celebrated on its premises every autumn with great pomp and show.

At night, when the palace is lit, the characteristic golden lights lend its viewers an ethereal experience.
