Munnar in Kerala can just not be simply called with its name, the
beauty of the place demands for surnames such as glorious, enthralling,
amazing…….and more. The town Munnar is situated at the confluence of three
renowned streams - Muthirapuzha, Nallathanni and Kundala.
The hidden mist, golden beam of sun rays and wide spread plantations -
all create a never-ending adoration for the mist-laden hills of Munnar among
the visitors. Many appreciate it for its fresh and lively environ all year
round.
Munnar is a beautiful hill station located in “God’s Own Country”,
Kerala, which has about 50 opulent tea plantations. Munnar's one of the most
famous assets is the Nallathanni Estate’s tea plantation. It is also the home
of the unique museum especially devoted to “Tea”. This museum displays engaging
facts, artifacts and figures about the production and development of tea in
Munnar. People can learn the various techniques about how the tea is refined
and produced. You will also get to taste the tea in various demonstration
rooms.
Munnar is a beautiful meadow ecosystem with wandering rivulets in the
Idukki district at the Eravikulam National Park. The national park is home of
the Nilgiri Tahr, an endangered species of goat. January to April is the
calving season of Nilgiri Tahrs, so the park remains closed.
Whereas, one can witness heavy rainfall at the Chinnar Wildlife
Sanctuary, as there is almost a two-month long rainy season here. Also, you can
spot the endangered Giant Grizzled Squirrel, while enjoying trekking in this
deciduous forest. This national park is also very famous because of its rolling
grasslands and the occult flower - Neelakurinji, which blooms only once in 12
years sprawling over a vast area…!!
From the list of popular attractions one can enjoy boating at the
Mattupetty Dam, which is about 13 kms away from Munnar. It is one of the most
beautiful picnic spots, where one can spend some quality time with family. The
dam offers you splendid views of the tea plantations. Also, there is the Shola Forest,
which is the best place for trekking with exquisite green trees and streams
crisscrossing the path.
So, what are you waiting for? Plan a trip to Munnar and book your well
customized vacation packages in advance to save both time and money.
