During this photowalk, we also cover the Devaraja Market in the early hours of the morning. This vibrant market, located in the heart of Mysore, is a bustling hub of activity where locals gather to purchase fresh produce, spices, and other goods. As we make our way through the market, we will have the opportunity to capture the hustle and bustle of vendors setting up their stalls and customers bargaining for the best deals.
