Splendor of Karnataka

Silk, sandalwood and spices.  Karnataka's wealth has a thousand other treasures hidden away.  With the perfume of roasted coffee beans, jasmines, roses and incense, this land of fragrance boasts of a multitude of other charming contrasts too.  Immortal sculptures, monuments, temples, palaces as well as beaches, forests and even the hustle and bustle of industries.  Indeed, the attractions are many for the seeker of exotic enchantments.  Memories of elephant rides, hikes across its nostalgically haunting terrain, swimming and surfing in its blue green seas.  The forts, the ruins and its delightful monsoons linger on and on.  Or for the spiritually inclined, Karnataka is the perfect destination you can hope for.

Apart  from the joys of the tantalizing Arabian coastline, the majestic Deccan rocks and the rich tropical forests, there is the excitement of other equally amazing discoveries.  Like its exquisite handicrafts, ethnic gold and silver jewelry, its finger licking cuisine and its touching hospitality.  This incidentally, is one of those few places where you stop to ask for directions and most likely you will find a most willing escort to your destination, who could provide you an introduction, on the way, to the rich heritage, of which he is uniquely proud of.

Here is a culturally enriching, colorful holiday for you.  Enjoy its folk dances, music, art forms, literature, age old traditions and rituals which by themselves are a riot of rich colors. Karnataka: an experience to cherish, an experience to refresh, beckoning you to its colors and traditions.  A tradition that never wears off.

Thanks to the kind co-operation of the Department of Tourism, Mysore,
