On the way to Mysore, we always munch some food in Lokruchi kamath, other then lokruchi, we do not enjoy much in other restaurants. Now a days, Mc Donalds on the way to Mysore, service is not like before. Coffee in Lokruchi, we never miss and Jower roti in the lunch or dinner.
After travelling for so many years to Mysore, never made up mind to visit Janapada loka. Today being a Saturday we had to attend a function in Mysore by evening, stopped for breakfast and asusual Husband had some work and he opened his Laptop and stayed in the car, got a good break from daily routine, thought of taking my daughter and visit Janapada loka, entry fee of rs 10 worth a visit, was regretting for not carrying a good camera, just clicked few pic from my cell.

Janapada Loka or "Folk(arts) world" is an institution that is dedicated to preserving and propagating the rural folk culture of Karnataka. It is a subsidiary of the Karnataka Janapada Parishat and is situated in Ramanagara district on the Bangalore-Mysore highway. It is set up on a 15-acre (61,000 m2) plot where rural milieus from Karnataka have been recreated. It also houses a wide array of rural artifacts depicting the essence of folk literature, music, dance, festivals, sculpture and lifestyle. It is the brainchild of the folklore enthusiast, the late H. L. Nage Gowda.
Janapada Loka celebrates many folk cultural events throughout the year. Of the many, Lokotsava has been the most anticipated one. Folk artists from all over Karnataka participate in this two day event. It happens during Feb-March every year.
