Tamil Nadu is famous for having the most beautiful hill
stations of the country.
Udhagamandalam,
the chief hill station of Tamil Nadu is popularly called "Ooty"
and is described as 'The Queen of Hill Stations'. Not far away are two
smaller and quieter hill resorts Coonoor and Kotagiri - in the same range.
Ketti is a tiny village located on the road to Coonoor, which is the home
of tribes such as the Badagas and
the Todas. Kodaikanal located amidst
the folds of the verdant Pali hills is also a popular hill station, which
mesmerises any visitor. Yercaud also called as "Ooty of the Poor "
is known for Coffee plantations and Orange groves and is comparatively
more peaceful and cheaper than the major southern resorts of Ooty and
Kodaikanal.
