Ooty or Udagamandalam was found as a place for summer repose for the British rulers. The place nestled in the Nilgiri Hills has a rare vintage British colonial charm with meandering ways in between the coffee plantations, blue mountains and lush green forests.
While visiting Ooty, you can visit the Boat House established by Tamil Nadu tourism department and ride around in a boat, visit the Botanical Garden and admire the diversity in flora species of the place, visit the Rose Garden and appreciate the 1919 varieties of roses, visit the flower garden made with threads and wires, stop by the Ooty Lake, and visit the Tea Factory and Museum and the St. Stephen’s Church. The Tea Factory and Museum can make you awestruck by the detailed history of tea plantation in India.
Ooty enjoys a cool and calm climate all year-round. This is one of the reasons behind Ooty’s position as a popular tourist destination in the Southern part of India. The scenic fusion of natural bounty in the form of green valleys, blue hills, and British architecture continues to mesmerize the travelers for a long time.
