dEar Srikanth, The Journey time to Melukote(Tirunarayanapuram) from Bangalore is approximately 3 hours. >From Bangalore you have to travel on Mysore Road towards Mysore. You will cross Ramanagaram, Chennapatna, Maddur and reach Mandya the district headquarters which the Melukote belongs to. You further travel towards Mysore from Mandya and at a distance of approximately 1 or 2 Kms you have to take a deviation towards right for Melukote which is 40 KMs from there. You should see a sign post to Melukote on the Mysore road there at the deviation. If you have doubts you can ask someone in Mandya town who will direct you towards Melukote. Hope you have a lovely darshan of Cheluva Narayana(Shelva Pillai) the presiding deity and YogaNarasimhaSwamy on the hilltop. I suggest you carry a Camera to catch the beauty of the Melukote town with the Hill Shrine and many Kalyanis. Don't forget to see the Big Kalyani near the foot of the hill and also the Akka/Tangi Kola the Kalyanis of the two sisters which is very beautiful. The beauty of Melukote is been captured in films by many including the famous director Maniratnam and actors Rajnikanth and Kamalhaasan and in many Hindi and Kannada Movies. Also you can visit Tonnur(Tondanur) where Sri Ramanuja first came and settled in Karnataka in the 12th Century. There is a very beautiful lake in Tonnur, the water of which is crystal clear. You can find a temple dedicated to NambiNarayana there. Also I suggest you visit the famous maLur Aprameya swami temple which is near Chennapatna on the way to Melukote. It is a very beautiful temple and you can find the beautiful idol of Benne Krishna there.
