Vidhana Soudha ( The Parliment House of Karnataka)





Build by Kengel Hanumanthaiah, the then chief Minister of Mysore State, this imposing building is the house of Legislative Assembly and the Administrative Office of Karnataka. Vidhana Soudha, an arresting monument is built by using pure granite and the huge doors of cabinet are made of pure sandalwood. Housing 22 departments and 300 rooms, the gleaming white domes, pillars and archways resemble the architectural pattern of Mysore's palace
