Gunpowder Storage is a famous tourist attraction in Srirangapatna in Mysore. It is a great place for the ones that have a special interest in the history. As per the name, it was the place for storing the gunpowder. Constructed in an amazing architecture in order to provide a complete protection to the ammunition and powder, these rooms were built with small rooms across Srirangapatna. The main storage was a few feet below the ground level that provided protection from the destruction caused by the cannon balls.
Why Are They Famous?
Reflecting the laudable architecture of the then times, the gunpowder storage rooms are the dungeons where the armies of Tipu Sultan used to store the gunpowder for the cannon. They were built in a manner that they remained unaffected by the destruction.
