About Munnar
Munnar sits where three mountain streams meet in the Western Ghats. The town grew around British tea estates in the 1880s, and tea still covers almost every slope you see on the drive up from Kochi.
Two nights lets you see the main sights without rushing: Eravikulam National Park for the Nilgiri tahr, the tea museum, Mattupetty Dam and Echo Point on one side of town, and Top Station on the Tamil Nadu border if the sky is clear.
How to reach Munnar
Nearest airport is Kochi (COK), 110 km. Nearest railhead is Aluva, 110 km. The drive climbs through Kothamangalam and Adimali with photo stops at the waterfalls.
