The Chamundeshwari Celebrity Wax Museum is a specialized exhibition space located near the foothills of Chamundi Hill in Mysore. The museum showcases a collection of life-sized wax figures representing notable national and international celebrities from the worlds of cinema, sports, and politics. It serves as a visual art gallery where visitors can view hyper-realistic sculptures modeled after famous public personalities. The facility is situated along the primary access route toward the Chamundi Temple, making it a frequent stop for tourists visiting the hill shrine. The exhibits are curated to provide interactive photography opportunities for guests. The building is maintained as an indoor attraction, shielding visitors from Mysore's outdoor climate.
