With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore everything that Vayittiri, 25 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area beginning with Lakkidi View Point, Koottamundu Glass Temple and Karlad Lake. Locals will also likely point you toward Mysore, 40 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Mysore Palace. (But we’re also huge fans of Mysore Zoo and Chamundi Temple.)
