Directions from the Mysore Railway Station

Go straight out of the station. At the second roundabout, take a right onto K.R.S. Road. Shortly after the Ramakrishna Ashram the road bears right, but continue straight, past the police station on the left and onto Gokulam Road. Pass through the center of town and after the Ganesh Temple (on the right), take the third right at the State Bank of Mysore. The Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute is located just ahead on the left. A rickshaw ride should run about 25 rupees.
