Stroll past flower beds set beneath towering trees and take a ride around the park on the toy train at the Raja’s Seat. Stand under the thick, stone arches of the pavilion and relish views of the rolling mountains that stretch out beneath you. Unwind in the serene haven of Raja’s Seat and rest your legs at one of the benches positioned in the shade of several old oak trees. Breathe in the fragrant scents that emit from tropical plants and study intricate bonsai trees. Make your way along winding paths and you will also discover fountains that play gentle rhythmic music as they throw colored water high up into the sky. Children will love the toy train that slowly travels around the garden. This offers an exciting and novel way to enjoy the flowers and trees that are on show. The train runs throughout the day and trips last approximately 10 minutes. You will not struggle to find the Raja’s Seat, the structure that stands proudly above the shaped fauna and flowerbeds of the garden. This is where the kings of the Kodagu region in southern India would come with their wives to enjoy peace and tranquility. As you approach the seat, marvel at the orange tiled roof and lined patterning around the top of this white stone pavilion. Enter through the arches that cover all four sides of the structure and take in the spectacular scenery. At 3,668 feet (1,118 meters) above sea level you can look for miles across the green hills and lush valleys that surround Madikeri. For the best views, come early in the morning or just before sunset. Raja’s Seat is a short walk from the middle of town and it is open all week. There is a small admission fee and additional charge to ride on the toy train. ## Plan a trip to see Raja's Seat Price found within the past 48 hours.
