About Tea County, KTDC Hill Resort
Munnar,
the Kashmir of South India is a part of Kerala. It is one of the most
popular hill stations in India. Layer after layer of tea gardens , mountain
mist, waterfalls and forest sanctuaries make Munnar almost surrealistically
beautiful.
Munnar is situated at the confluence of three mountain streams Mudrapuzha,
Nallathanni and Kundala. Located at 1600 M above sea level, this was once
the summer resort of the erstwhile British Government in South India.
Sprawling tea plantations, picture book towns, winding lanes, trekking and
holiday facilities make Munnar unique experience. The visitor is greeted
with miles and miles of unending tea plantations on entry into Munnar.
Munnar is the luxuriant gift of
nature to the western ghats,the eastern border of Kerala,5000 ft above the
sea level. Dense forests, wildlife sanctuaries,and a major crash crop
plantations. Munnar abounds in animals like Nilgiri Tahr, rich elephants,and
rich biodiversity teeming with flora and fauna. Among the exotic flora found
here is the Neelakurinji - the rare flower that bathes these hills in blue
once every 12 year.
