Kuntibetta located 130 km on the
Mysore road towards Mandya and then a right turn, past sugar cane plantations
with the characteristic smell of jaggery plants, will take you to Pandavapura. The
betta gets its name from Mahabharatha kunti. As per history kunti spent some of
their exile days here, hence the name kuntibetta.
Standing at the summit, one can enjoy the panoramic view of the
surrounding countryside, backwaters of Tonnur Kere, lakes and vast expanse of
agriculture fields. |
