A storytelling walk through the nostalgia of a city that shaped Karnataka’s destiny.Over the last three editions, Memories of Mysuru has become much more than a walk. It has become a gathering of curious people who enjoy asking questions, sharing memories, and discovering new perspectives about the city we call home.We often think we know our city because we’ve lived in it for years. But sometimes all it takes is a slow walk and a good conversation to realize how much we’ve been missing. This third edition is an opportunity to reconnect with Mysuru, its stories, and a community of people who are equally curious about the place around them.It begins quietly.A road slowly waking up.The Chamundi Hill in the distance.And a long flight of steps waiting ahead.But somewhere along the climb, something shifts.This stops feeling like just another walk uphill.Because every few steps, the city begins to speak.Through forgotten stories.Through mythology.Through people who shaped Mysuru in ways we still live with today.As we climb together, you’ll experience Chamundi Hill not just as a landmark, but as a living archive of Mysuru’s history, mystery, memory, and transformation.What You’ll ExperienceAlong the walk, we’ll pause at different points to uncover stories such as:* A temple older than the Chamundeshwari shrine* Dewan Purnaiah and the Mysuru he helped shape* The Nandi that silently watches over the city* The many interpretations of Mahishasura’s story* How Mysuru slowly became a global yoga hubWho You’ll Be Walking WithSachin Bhandary - Founder & Trainer, Story Co & Story ClubSachin is known on Instagram for sharing stories from Mysuru’s history and culture through his handle @eccentricsachin.He is also:* An ex-PR professional* An ex-journalist* A TEDx speaker* Co-host of the radio show Business and Leadership Stories on Radio OneFormatA guided heritage walk up the Chamundi Hill steps, where stories unfold along the climb itself.This is not a lecture at the top.The experience is designed as an immersive storytelling journey, with conversations, pauses, and stories woven through the walk.⸻Event DetailsDate - Thursday, 20th August 2026 Time- 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM - (Reporting Time: 5:50 AM)Venue - Chamundi Hill Steps, MysuruTicket - ₹399 [ Early Bird](Includes the guided storytelling walk + light snacks)What’s Included* Guided heritage walk led by Sachin Bhandary* Story-led experience across the Chamundi Hill steps* Moderate to Advanced difficulty level* Light, healthy snacks served at the top after the walkWhat’s Not Included* Travel to and from the venue* Accommodation arrangementsA Few Things to Keep in Mind* Carry a small water bottle* Wear comfortable walking shoes with good grip* Please arrive on time so you don’t miss the opening segment* This walk involves climbing the Chamundi Hill steps at a steady paceOnly 9 seats are available for this edition.Bring your curiosity, your walking shoes, and your most enthusiastic self.Need Help?If you have any questions about the event, registration, or the experience, feel free to get in touch with us.Organising Team? +91 9353625945Facilitator – Sachin Bhandary? +91 9819954815We’re happy to help and look forward to seeing you at Memories of Mysuru!
