The last stop of my tour of Mysore took me to this dam, which is known as the Brindavan Gardens Dam. The dam was built to redirect water for land irrigation.
The smart people of Mysore also decided to turn their dam into a national tourist destination. At the dam, there are beautiful gardens, posh hotels and nightly light-and-water shows. There are also plenty of good eats and a 7''8 Indian man raking in plenty of pay-to-take-a-picture-with-me dough.
The smart people of Mysore didn’t stop there with the ideas. They decided that their dam is such a tourist destination that they would charge an extra fee to bring in a camera. In fact, the charge for bringing in a camera is three times the charge for human entrance.
You can tell me if it was worth it.
Lesson of the day: Mysoreans are full of ideas
