Around every corner was another breath taking view of the tea bushes making a beautiful sea of varying shades of green. I loved.. there also had those huge beautiful rocks which break the sea of green. The closeness to the road meant you could get out and have photos in among them. What a cool place..

A nice place to take a stroll. You will see lush Green Meadows and some water body. This is a relaxed place and not much of the tourist visit here. Access road is not in good shape but once you are in you feel chilled

Enjoy the real peace of nature.. prefer not as much crowded time to visit.. better time morning..

During our tour to Kerala' 2019, we had been here on our way. mesmerized with the view!

Super place to come and enjoy your vacation

Best of tea crops.These are actual places or the places that our parents and forefathers have been, but for various reasons, we have migrated from there are settled down in larger cities My native place is Munnar in Kerala. It is a village area and we have been there several times. Most of the people live there, either through agricultural income or through small scale business income. My father relocated from there when he got a job opportunity abroad and then we happened to settle in the city where we are now. This village has so many beautiful places and is very quiet and calm. There are many small streams that flow and we have many times walked through these small streams to get to places. Since it does not have lots of traffic like cities, the air is pure and fresh and we had so much place to play around. During vacations, my cousins used to come down at our home and we all used to have lots of fun, by playing around. Since we have the well over there, the water that we had also was very pure and not contaminated. My mother used to have a small cultivation area where she used to cultivate so many different kinds of vegetables and fruits and we were having more of healthy and natural food, when compared to what we get in cities. The neighbors were also were nice and we all knew one another and lived almost like a family there.
