    You could bring a small notebook and have the kids write down what each carved door’s inscription says, then guess which family member it refers to. After the mausoleum, a quick walk to the nearby Srirangapatna Fort lets them compare the number of gates and see how Tipu’s military ideas show up in both sites. If you’re staying at KK Comforts, a short break there keeps everyone refreshed before the next stop.
