Brindavan Garden located about 19 km away from the Mysore city center. Edit

Detail InformationEdit

Brindavan Garden is one of the most visited places in Mysore by locals and tourists. The garden, built by Sir Mirza Ismail, has a botanical park, with boat rides in the lake, as well as fountains. The highlight of the garden is its symmetric design and beautifully laid out terrace gardens, studded with topiaries, pergolas and gazebos. However, the illuminated dancing fountains in the northern side of the garden steals the show. A beautifully orchestrated show involving harmonious coupling of water with colourful lights and music, the fountain comes to life after sunset. Lasers are installed along with the lights to make the show more dramatic. These beautiful gardens are laid out below the Krishnaraja Sagar Dam (known as Kannambadi to the locals), built across the river Cauvery, which itself is a superb example of excellent engineering and is a major tourist attraction.

HistoryEdit

The Brindavan Gardens lies adjoining the Krishnarajasagara dam which is built across the river Kaveri. The work on laying out this garden was started in the year 1927 and completed in 1932. The garden is maintained by the Cauvery Niravari Nigama (Cauvery Irrigation Department), a Government of Karnataka enterprise. It is spread across an area of 60 acres (240,000 m2). Adjoining it is also a fruit orchard spread across 75 acres (300,000 m2) and 2 horticultural farms, Nagavana (30 acres) and Chandravana (5 acres). The garden is laid out in 3 terraces which contain water fountains, Ficus trees, foliage plants such as Duranta plumaria and Euphorbia and flowering plants like Celosia, Marigold and bougainvillea. The garden was renovated in 2005 with a cost of Rs. 50 million. The renovation included sprucing up the musical fountain using a digitised system and repairs of dysfunctional fountains.
