Nandi Bull is one of the landmark tourist attractions of Mysore. The over 350 year old statue represents Lord Shiva’s vehicle and was created during the reign of Dodda Devaraja. The Nandi is the third largest in all of India, carved out of a single piece of a rock 15 ft height and 24 ft width.

The colossal bull is located in the Chamundi Hills very close to Mysore and nearby Chamundeswari, the temple that sits high above the city reached by 1000 steps.
