PALATIAL GATES & TREES

“Celebrating 2017” ( an earlier post)  by seeing the Lush Green Trees that surround all the Gates that lead to  The Mysore Palace in Karanataka, India.

The Jumbo Gate  ( do have a peek into the previous post by this title) is  set in a World of Green . Seen from within the Palace grounds during The Dusshera Celebrations held in October 2016.

 The Jumbo Gate set in Green Surroundings

The Angel Gates giving a glimpse of the Main Palace Building are guarded by two Coconut Trees.

Lord Krishna, the cowherd ,Crowns the Ticketing Gate through which the Gopurams ( large doorways)  of the Temples within the Palace Grounds can be seen in the picture below.

The Cow Herd is Surrounded by Trees

Lord Krishna plays the Flute while standing atop the head of a Multi-headed Serpent.

I can only see a World of Green through the palatial Krishna Gate which was reserved for High ranking Officials during the Dusshera Festival while mere mortals like us battled their way in. ( the featured image shows the  minor gate through which mere mortals enter during the festival)

All is Green through the Krishna Gate

Ancient Trees tell of a glorious  past  as they survive the turmoils of history under the protection of the King within the Palace Grounds in Mysore.
