Munnar Hill Station.

Munnar in the Chill.


 In the Western Ghats of Kerala, Munnar is situated at nearly 1,600 meters above sea level. The air turns crisp and misty even in the middle of the day is a fantastic experience.

The name  Munnar comes from the Malayalam word for "three rivers,"the Muthirapuzha, Nallathanni, and Kundala streams meet.  

The tea gardens attract you first of all.Rolling hills on lush greenery covered in neatly clipped green rows stretch out in every direction. 

Munnar is the home to more than 50 tea gardens and estates,  and walking through them feels like stepping into a living postcard.

It was a pleasant experience when we were there;
 the smell of the leaves were in the atmosphere,
the cold morning air gave us a fresh  beginning.

We Explored Tea gardens and tea museum ,the Tata Tea Museum offers a close look at how tea is processed, along with tastings at the estate. 

Mattupetty Dam  is a quiet spot surrounded by hills, good for a short boat ride.The cool water in the dam cherish our happiness and joy.

Echo Point is  a scenic viewpoint known for its natural echo, where shouting across the valley actually gets you an answer back. A person is there to take our family pictures in the background of nature.

  
Eravikulam National Park  is  home to the rare Nilgiri Tahr, with trails winding through grassland and forest. A good view of Munnar hill ranges can be seen from the highest points of the park.

Summer (March–June) brings the most pleasant weather, with temperatures between 15°C and 25°C
 ideal for sightseeing. Cool Breeze welcomes you to the immeasurable depth of natural beauty.


 Winter (December–February) turns colder, around 5°C to 15°C, with mist rolling over the hills.It appears like white pearls among green hillocks.
