Munnar/Idukki
Munnar/Idukki
Munnar, South India’s world-famous hill station, is a place full of romance endowed with natural scenery, with plenty of Idukki resorts and hotels supporting it. Also, it lies at the juncture of three mountain streams namely Muthirapuzha, Nallathanni, and Kundala. And it is also fascinating to know that ‘Munnar’ itself translates as three rivers in Malayalam. Located about 1600m above sea level, the hill station was used as the summer resort by the British Government during the colonial era, with English country cottages still present. Furthermore, virgin forests, savannah, rolling hills, scenic valleys, streams, and waterfalls form part of the traveler’s experience. Similarly, sprawling tea plantations and winding walkways are also part of this experience. Moreover, Munnar is also noted for Neelakurinji, a rare plant that flowers once every twelve years, creating a spectacle when the hills are covered in blue.
