Mysore Palace, Royal palace in Mysore, India.
The palace displays Indo-Saracenic architecture with gray granite walls, featuring a central tower reaching 44 meters topped with a gold-plated dome.
After a wooden structure burned down in 1897, British architect Henry Irwin designed the current palace, which was completed in 1912.
The Durbar Hall hosts ceremonies throughout the year, while twelve Hindu temples within the complex maintain traditional religious practices.
The palace museum opens daily with entrance fees of 100 rupees for adults and 50 rupees for children between 7 and 18 years old.
During Sunday evenings, thousands of light bulbs illuminate the entire palace structure, creating a regular lighting ceremony for visitors.
