Ooty - The queen of hill stations

Ooty is a must place to visit for those who love nature and greenery. The climate is also good throughout the year. I have visited this place many times as part of study tours,personal trips. Local areas are known for tea cultivation.



Ooty lake is a well known spot in this place. It is an artificial lake surrounded by groves of Eucalyptus trees.The boat house is a major tourist attraction in Ooty.


The botanical garden is the other top attraction of the city. It is a 22 acre consist of thousand species of plants and trees. A flower show with an exhibition of rare plants is held every May. Below you can see the glass house in the garden.


The rose Garden has the one of the largest collection of roses in the country with more than 20,000 varieties of roses. This is just a view from the rose garden.


The other attraction of the city includes Pykara falls, Doddabetta peak, Muthumalai National park, Kamaraj Sagar Dam, Pine Forest, Shooting Point and so on.
