Mysore
A travelogue by a great Indian author about an area he obviously know very well. Very engaging accounts of local towns, villages and tourist sites plus of course temples and other religious places. A lot of history is thrown in amongst these accounts. I read this on my phone and took about 3 months as only read on the tube when I'd forgotten paper books. Narayan's novels are well worth reading and really place you in the India that he describes. This travel book captures some of that vivid description but at times can be a little rushed and dry. But it does make me want to read more of him.
