Chinnadagudihundi
Skip unless you have a specific reason to visit a tiny village with no shops, no taxis and no restaurants: a half-day trip from Mysore or Nanjangud at most.
Chinnadagudihundi (also called C.H.Gudi) is a small village in Mysore district, Karnataka, about 7 km from Nanjangud. It has a railway station, a school and one temple. There are no taxis, no buses, no restaurants and no accommodation. Most travellers use it as a picnic spot or a short stop on the way to Chamarajanagar. A half-day is enough.
