    Ooty, known for its pleasant climate and beautiful landscape, is a popular destination for honeymooners.  This beautiful place was described by PanditJawaharLal Nehru as the “Queen of Hill Stations" and truly it deserves this name. ‘Ooty’(the shortened form of Ootacamund) is the capital of the Nilgiris district. The name ‘Nilgiris’ means "Blue Mountains” and this name comes from the eucalyptus trees growing here that give the mountains a blue tint. ”. This city welcomes you with the aroma of eucalyptus filled in the air. Ooty is situated at an altitude of 2, 240 meters above sea level. As you reach Ooty, you will feel the climate change and your lungs will feel the fresh air. This was a popular summer retreat of British during the colonial days. Though this place is commercialized now, you can still feel the chilled climate in this hill station and also enjoy the scenery of tea plantations spread across many acres. Other attractions of the city are the Summer Flower Festival held at the Botanical Garden and Tea and Tourism festival.  Make sure to add this to your itenarary when you visit. Places to visit Doddabetta Peak: As already mentioned, Ooty is surrounded by thick Nilgiri forest. To get a better picture of this, you need to go to the highest mountain peak of nilgiri – ‘Doddabetta’(meaning: Big mountain). This is at an altitude of 8652 feet. When you reach this place, you will be mesmerized by the view of the Nilgiri hills. It will be great if you happen to be here during sunrise or sunset. Botanical gardens: Ooty Botanical Garden was built in 1847 Coimbatore district collector, John Sullivan. This beautiful and well maintained garden has different species of flowers to offer you. You need a lot of energy to go around this 50 acres garden or else you can just relax on the vast green lawn. Lake: The song form Maine Pyar Kiya ‘‘Dil diwana. bin sajna’’ made the artificial ‘Ooty lake’ as the honeymooners favorite spot. Experience this romantic boat ride in amidst cool breezes and a beautiful landscape. Connor If you think Ooty is beautiful, then you will have to visit Conoor to experience more. Conoor is about 19 kms from Ooty and this is a place to visit because of its picture perfect scenery. The best way to enjoy the beauty of the beautiful valley is to travel through the toy train from Ooty to Conoor. You will be spell bound by the view that unfolds during this journey. But remember to book your ticket in advance if you want to avoid standing in a long queue. Dolphin’s nose This is a peak that resembles a Dolphins nose, and is another view point in ooty. Thick fog blocked the view for us, so just came back seeing the thick fog covered all over the place. SIMS Park: Another park with lovely landscape. A walk around this park holding your partners hand will make this trip a memorable one. Tea Factory: Visiting High Field tea factory will give you gyaan of how the green tea leaves turn into the dark brown tea powder. The Step-by-step explanation is worth listening. Click a snap of yours in the vast spread tea plantation for your memory of ooty. Tea and coffee: Ooty is surrounded by tea plantation. For tea lovers you have a variety of flavors like lemon, masala, clove, cinnamon, classic leaf etc. Try out the chocolate and masala tea, they are awesome.(at high field tea estate). Chocolates: Another attraction of ooty is the home made chocolates.  You will love the taste. You get these yummy chocolates in different flavors like Fruit n nut, rum n raisin, cashew. You can buy these from Temptation. Oil: Nilgiri hills is home for many herbal and medicinal trees. ·         eucalyptus oil – for cold ·         camphor oil – for pain relief You can shop for these at horticultural shops and government vending points at Botanical gardens. Woolen clothes: Ooty is a place to visit in all the seasons, but it can get chilly for people not used to the cold weather. Others: ·         Ooty apples ·         Carrots ·         Strawberries

    Good place to visit but the city is full of people waiting to rob you of your hard earned money, specially the ones running tours and travels. Beware of cheats. One such is Hills Travels in Charing Cross linked with Hotel Sanjay.

    Atleast every 1 hour the train should connect to mettupalam / ooty , so that more visitors will enjoy the ride, and it will help to explore ooty even for a short day tour. Tamilnadu Tourism should plan to link important places in ooty (like Pykara lake, pine forest, etc. ) by train. With new construction technology, tunnels can be built across ooty to link the tourist spots for attracting more tourists. We live in 21st century right?
