Konanooru & Ramanathapura

Konanooru  & Ramanathapura are on the borders of the two districts - Mysooru & Hasana.There is a long Hanging bridge at Konanooru, which is worth seeing. Some 2 kms away from that bridge, is an old Dam called 'Krshnaraja Katte' ,  which is the first Dam ever built on the river Cauvery.Thus, the adjoining village  bears the name ' Kattepura'.
  Ramanathapura is a piligrim centre. Ther are a number of temples at Ramanathapura, namely Lord Subrahmanya swamy, Lord Shiva & Lord Rama.The Music village of Rudrapattanam is about 5 kms from here.
