Ooty - Hill Station in South India
Serene Pykara Falls In Ooty
The latest destination I visited was Ooty. Ooty is a hill station in South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, nearly 565 kms. from Chennai. It is a heaven place full of greenery & beauty of nature. It was a pleasant season in the months of April-May, which turns a little chilly as you move to altitudes. We took a toy train from Mettupalayam which takes 5 hours to reach Ooty. It shows the beauty of the forests, tea gardens on the hills as it takes you through them at a slow pace.
We stayed at a resort in the outskirts & not in the city as it makes you come more closer to the nature. Our resort was beautifully placed on the steps of a hill which showed the tea cultivation around. As you enter the balcony, you can really get swayed away by the beauty of the climate & nature around. The places to visit are Botanical garden, a zoological park & a water park 'Black Thunder' as your retreat from the hills.
