Karnataka is one of the wettest regions in India. Seasonal monsoon dominates the climate of Karnataka. The temperature usually spans between 30 degree and 26 degree. The state has overall a pleasant climate through out the year.
The Dussehra of Mysore is a ten - day festival when elephants carrying the idol of goddess
Chamundi is taken through the city. While most parts of India celebrate Dussehra in commemoration of Lord Rama's victory over the demon - king
Ravana, Karnataka celebrates it in honor of Goddess Chamundeswari who killed the great demon,
Mahishasura. Another famous festival is the "Karaga" which is celebrated at the
Dharmaraya Temple. 'Vasantha Habba' is another interesting festival held in January/February at
Nrityagram.
