It's a beautiful place Small as compared to Mysore palace. But this place has it's own significance. ️ One of the must visit historical place in Mysore, Karnataka. This place is like a museum. Guides are available in 3 languages. Kannada, English and also Hindi. Good place for students of history. ️
Parking charges are waste of giving for just few minutes if visit over there. This was not been maintained from the tourist department. It's a free entry however we can see full place within an hour.
A very quiet and peaceful place. Remove your footwear and step in. Keep your phones aside and learn about the history of the place. A needed break from the world.
Very well maintained Modrate crowd even on sundays Entry for gumbaz is free but parking for vehicles is charged very high cost. You get cold drinking water You can go for a horse ride outside the gate.
Good historical building and nice architecture. Knowledgeable place for children and good experience. But parking fees and in same building 2 partitions with separate tickets and even chappals stand also need to pay tickets some what annoying for middle class person.
This place is great, its shows the life of tipu sultan R. A. THAT WHAT brave warrior of south india he sacrifice his life for the country. Ifeel all the real value of his life what a person. Feel proud to be muslim
For history lovers a must place to visit. I have visited this place many times and still find something new to explore. Of course the extent of commercialisation around the place with multiple shops is depressing, but now a days every historically significant place has turned into a tourist spot, so cannot complain much about it.
The place is absolutely free to visit but people charge for parking in keeping your slippers. The place is very clean and neat and very well managed though there is no visiting fee for visiting the place.
The only thing which I would like to suggest is such places should not be made into a business. That's all I would like to say.

The Gumbaz was raised by Tipu Sultan in 1782-84 at Srirangapatna to serve as a mausoleum for his father and mother. The mausoleum was surrounded by a cypress garden which is said to have different species of flowering trees and plants collected by Tippu Sultan from Persia, Ottoman Turkey, Kabul and French Mauritius.
The original carved doors of the mausoleum have been removed and are now displayed at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The present doors made of ebony and decorated with ivory were gifted by Lord Dalhousie Inside the mausoleum, the middle grave is that of Hyder Ali, to his east is Tipu Sultan's mother, and to his West Tipu Sultan is buried. On the southern side of the veranda outside are the graves of Sultan Begum - Tipu's sister, Fatima Begum - Tipu's daughter, Shazadi Begum - infant daughter, Syed Shahbaz - Tipu's son-in-law, Mir Mahmood Ali Khan, and his father and mother. On the East side is the black grave supposedly of Tipu's foster mother Madina Begum. There is an elevation on the veranda with 3 rows of graves, with the first having no headstones. Another row has 14 graves - 8 women and 6 men, including that of Malika Sultan e Shaheed or Ruqia Banu, Burhanuddin Shaheed - brother-in-law of Tipu and brother of Ruqia Banu, Nizamuddin and 1 unmarked grave.

Maintained well, good that no entry fee, but charges 30/- for footwear itself is like entry. Good garden to stroll around, and spend some cool time in park.
Tippu Sulthan Tomb at Shreeranga pattanam in Karnataka, is an historic Place where consisting the tomb of Tippu Sulthan, father and mother, kith and kins
Just pass through, nothing much to see and appreciate from tourist point of view.
Some children and their teachers can be seen inside the mosque. No where near to other mosques of importance.
I would suggest skip it. Masjid-i-Ala (also called Jama Masjid) is a mosque located inside the Srirangapatna Fort in Mandya District of Karnataka.
Before reaching Mysore from Bangalore, Srirangapatna falls on the way. A right turn is required to pass through the Bangalore Gate of the Fort.
Masjid was built during the regime of Tipu Sultan during 1786-87. The mosque is located close to the Bangalore Gate and has two minarets. The mosque is built over an elevated platform.
The mosque has two tall minarets which are separated by three octagonal stages. There are galleried balconies that separate each stage of the minaret. There are turnip-shaped domes on the top of the minarets. There is a large rectangular prayer hall inside the mosque with a flat roof supported by foiled arches. There is a series of arched openings in the minarets as well as the walls of the rectangular terrace. The mosque has two stories and unlike other mosques, it does not have a dome. There is an old clock installed during the early 20th century. A Madrasa is operated from the mosque, where learning of Islam is imparted.
Sorry this isn't a restaurant or hotel or amusement park that I should review it. It is a historic site and religious place to visit no reviews required. If you are visiting this place after reading reviews than please do not visit. Here are few pics you can look into
Located in Srirangapatnam Tombs of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan is a site worth visiting. It is situated at a distance of 15 km from Mysore. Built in 1784 AD by Tipu Sultan for his parents, he was also buried here in 1799 AD. With a height of about 20 meters, this structure stands majestically. Along with being historically important, these tombs also boast of excellent architecture. The architecture, which looks similar to that of Golconda tombs, captivates every visitor with its intricate designs and majestic structure. Built in Persian style of architecture, Gumbaz captivates everyone. Surrounded by beautiful garden named as Lalbagh Garden, the imposing structure of Gumbaz is seen in the middle on an elevated platform. The platform has an open veranda which is dotted with pillars made up of black granite. These majestic pillars provide support to the structure. These polished pillars add on to the overall beauty of these vast domes. The ivory decorated doors of the domes and the intricately carved stone windows showcase the hard-work and brilliant craftsmanship which has gone into creating this masterpiece. The walls have been painted in tiger stripes, which is popularly associated with Tipu Sultan. Entrance doors of Gumbaz were made with gold and silver. However, during the British reign these were looted and now are displaced in Albert Museum of London. Gumbaz has tomb of Hyder Ali, father of Tipu Sultan in the centre, while the tombs of his Tipu Sultan and Fatima Begam are located on both the sides. There is also a mosque called as Masjid-E-Aksa, here inside the complex. Once you enter here, spacious and lush green rectangular shaped garden and pathways lead you to the main structure which stands majestically in the middle. In 1784 AD, Tipu Sultan has built the tombs of his father Hyder Ali and mother Fathima Begam (Fakr-Un-Nisa) which is known as Gumbaz. Tipu Sultan, who is often referred as Tiger of Mysore, was the then king of Mysore. Gumbaz was built amid the lush green garden of Lal Bagh. Later in 1799 AD, Tipu Sultan was also buried here. There are also tombs of other Tipu Sultan relatives and nobles which surround the Gumbaz.
(Opening timings of Gumbaz is from 8 AM and it closes by 6.30 PM. There is no entry fee at Gumbaz. For vehicle parking, one needs to pay a fee of Rs. 30.)
