My World

Last Sunday we climbed the Chamundi Hill in Mysore. The hill has an ancient temple on top as well as a beautiful palace of the old Maharajas.

There are exactly a thousand rough hewn steps to reach the top. When we reached the gateway of the steps at 6 a.m, we were surprised to see hundreds of people climbing the hill. It was a festival, and people wanted to visit the temple early.

The whole place was covered with mist, giving it a mysterious look.

A view of the beautiful city of Mysore, covered in mist, from the top of the hill.

At last we reached the top and saw jostling crowds and hooting cars. The temple loomed etherially in the fog.
