Not that good place. You may visit for 10 minutes if you like so. Avoid visiting in sunny afternoons.

Raja's Tomb visit was an average experience, but the best part it is located in a peaceful area. Tourist attraction is quite limited but the surrounding garden is well maintained and provides a pleasant environment to stroll around. There were 3 tombs, out of which only a single tomb is made open to the public. As far as historical knowledge, it only gives little significance to captivate tourist attention.

There is nothing much to see here. It can be kept in your list of places to visit only for "a tick in the box". The building's not well maintained either.

The tomb is actually magnificent. Loved it. There was no one here too, I guess it gets crowded on the weekends.

Went during the monsoon time in September and couldn’t able to get any view as it was full of mist when we were there.

Raja’s Tomb (Gaddige), Coorg
Raja’s Tombs or Gaddige are built in Muhammadan style with tombs at the center and turrets at the corners. Nandi figures are carved on top of the corners.
The entrance of the tombs has carvings too. Lord Shiva is placed and worshipped inside the tomb since the king was Hindu. This is a very fascinating fact because most of the tombs belong to Muslim kings and dynasties.
There are three tombs built for the royal dynasty. The central tomb which is the largest among the three is of Kodava king Doddaveerarajendra and his wife Mahadeviamma. The right tomb built by Chikkaveerarajendra for his father Lingarajendra in 1820 A. D. The left tomb belonVeerarajendra’s guruRudrappa built in 1834 A. D.
Closer to the tombs is the burial place of the two brave royal officials Biddanda Bopu and his son Biddanda Somaiah who sacrificed their life fighting with Tippu Sultan.
Entry fee: 10/-
