    View Worth A King's Evening
    I am not too amazed why the king would choose this place to spend an evening! It's the grand view and clouds above you at a hand's stretch that would make you feel like on the top of the world. A must visit place when at Madikeri. There is an evening musical fountain and hence it becomes crazy crowded. I would recommend you to visit during morning hours.

    It is the perfect setting to relax and admire the breathtaking view of the surrounding areas with lush greenery
    A beautiful valley, flowers, and mist laden mountain ranges. You can stroll in the garden and spend some time amidst greenery and blooming flowers. Also you can see sunrise or sunset and capture the beautiful moments You can witness musical fountain in the evenings as it dances to the tunes of foot tapping music

    A must visit place in the morning or evening. You will get the chill wind even in this scorching monsoon heat. You should reach early to get a seat in case you want to see the sunset seats are fully packed when we are there at 5 PM. The musical fountain starts at 6:45 goes on till 7 PM and the crowd slowly fades into the exit.

    Would love to suggest the place to y'all......................
    One of the best Sunset view point in Madikeri, i would suggest you guy's to visit this place whenever you visit Madikeri or Coorg. You would love the park too ! There's even a zipline activity inside the park which you can try. Tip : Just find a good empty spot to sit as it get's crowded. There's a entry fee of 20rs as a maintenance fee ( doesn't include zipline ).

A breath-taking view awaits you! Beautiful scenery surrounds the valley in every direction. It is nature at its very finest, with lush greenery and a spectacular view. In the evening, we see a beautiful sunset, and this will depend on the day you visit as a sunny day will lead to a beautiful sunset. The evening light and sound water show are performed around 19:00. An ideal environment for family gatherings can be found at this location.

Raja's Seat is located in the heart of Madikeri (Coorg) city. Once you enter the Garden, you are amazed by its beauty ! There are colourful splash of multitude of flowers in bloom and the breathtaking scene with lovely aroma of flowers makes you awe stuck. As you go down few stairs, there is sunset view point and one gets mesmerised to see sun going down in the mountains and slowly darkness engulfs the whole area.At 7.30 pm or so there is light and water show. Lot of tourists throng this place to enjoy the colourful light show. Its must for all visitors coming to Coorg to enjoy this lovely garden with rare flowers and huge topiary designs of animal shape

Known for its sunset views, this is a public garden with the typical landscaping, children's play area, your usual road side vendors crowding the entrance. And a musical fountain, that some you like to see. Other than that this place is too crowded for comfort. There are better places than this from where you can get sunset views.

You will fall in love with sunsets. It’s a very pleasant and beautiful experience. To add to this the Small garden they are maintaining is very impressive. Maintained well. A bit crowded as it’s popular but you can pick your spot and immerse in the sunset experience.

It is a view point where you can see the clear valley and mountain ranges. The view is just like any other range view points. They have made a park around the view point with animal statues for kids to enjoy.

Overall a very ordinary place.

Located within the town, the place seems to one of the most popular hangout spots for tourists as well as for locals. We visited couple of times and found the place crowded every time. It is a well-maintained garden that offers nice valley view, however when we visited, it was foggy and hence could not get much view. The garden also offers certain activities like zip lining, toy train etc. In the evening, we witnessed musical fountain, which was though small and with music in local language, was enjoyable. The place presents a refreshing setting and enjoyable environment especially for family. An ideal place for leisurely stroll and relax.

A nice place to stop at sunset and take in the view but it is very commercialised and busy. There's a load of fairly random statues in the park some of which make sense e.g. rhino, elephant, but others that are just a bit random like dinosaurs and rabbits. Not entirely sure what to make of that!

This place has a good view but gets super crowded during sunset. We felt as if we have come to a theatre and the sunset event is a movie. It being located at the centre of Madikeri is perhaps the most visited place...but this has led to the lost charm of the place. It got unthinkably crowded during the evening and we could not enjoy the sunset much. Even it was impossible to take a picture without random people photobombing. For me sunrise/sunset is always associated with calmness but with the chaos of people there it lost the essence. I will not recommend this place unless someone has nothing better to do in the evening.
