[[మైసూరు]] కు 13 కి.మీ. దూరంలో గల ఈ నగరం, [[మాండ్యా జిల్లా]] లో గలదు. ఈ పట్టణం మొత్తం [[కావేరి నది]] చే చుట్టబడియున్నది. ఇదో ద్వీపంలా కనబడుతుంది.
Although situated a mere 13 km from [[Mysore]] city, Srirangapattana lies in the neighbouring district of [[Mandya District|Mandya]]. The entire town is enclosed by the river [[Kaveri]] to form an [[island]], northern half of which is shown in the image to the right. While the main river flows on the eastern side of the island, the ''Paschima Vaahini'' segment of the same river flows to its west. The town is easily accessible by train from [[Bangalore]] and [[Mysore]] and is also well-connected by road, lying as it does just off the Bangalore-Mysore highway. The highway passes through this town and special care was taken to minimize any impact on the monuments here.
