A Visit To Ooty / 参观 Ooty / 訪問先 Ooty

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Last year on the eve of new year I had visited Ooty. It's a town located in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. It's a hill station which is usually a little crowded during the summers as people rush here to enjoy the cold weather while sipping a cup of tea in the lush greenery and the mountains. For all the nature lovers and peace seekers it is a destination to visit for sure. And not just for the greenery and the hills, it's also famous for it's tea plantations and delicious homemade chocolates!

Listing down some of the places to visit and things to do here :

* Bamboo Forest : The place has a vast expanse of bamboo trees which lies adjacent to a beautiful lake. So you can visit both the places and take a little sunbath while you are there!

* Shooting Point : The shooting point got it's name because some movie scenes are shot here. It's full of trees and has a great view. There are horses present as well for you to take a ride.

* Take A Toy Train Ride : The toy train ride here is very famous and difficult to catch as it doesn't run throughout the day. It will take you round the town, through tunnels and mountains !

* Take A Resort Facing The Mountains And Enjoy The View : We took a resort on top of a hill and watched the horizon from there. It was the best view I have ever seen in my life and will never forget it. It looked like a painting!

* Museum And Churches : The place also has a wax musuem and a famous church. Since we ran short of time, I couldn't visit either.

* Try The Local Food : I had heard a lot about a place called The Biryani House and thought of checking it out. It had amazing biryani to offer. the other items were tasty as well.

* Visit The Botanical Garden And Rose Park : I had never seen so many colors of roses in my life! The entire garden was full of flowers and trees. It was nature at it's best and thus was a great place to sit and relax and enjoy the scenery.

* The National Park : Try the jungle safari , you will see peacocks, elephants, leopard and so many other animals. At the end of the jungle they will take you to a small village with a lake view and a swing right in the center! Enjoy a sip of coconut water there before returning.

私はブログを翻訳しました。なぜなら、私はもっと多くの人々に連絡し、言語が障壁になることなく全員と旅行の話を共有したいと思ったからです。 時々、私はブログの中の絵を見るのに非常に興味を持っていますが、別の言語で書かれているので、それを読んで翻訳してしまいます。 ですから、私はここでそれを翻訳する努力をしました。 ここであなたがこの場所が好きだと思っています。もしあなたがインドを訪れたなら、それを訪れることを検討するかもしれません。

緑豊かな緑と山々で紅茶を飲みながら寒い日を過ごすために、ここで急いで夏の間に混雑している丘の駅です。 すべての自然愛好家と平和探求者のために、それは確かに訪れる目的地です。 緑と丘だけでなく、茶園や美味しい自家製チョコレートでも有名です。 旅行の話をもっと分かち合うのを楽しみにしています。 良い一日を過ごしてください!

这是一个夏天的小山坡,人们在这里匆匆享受寒冷的天气,在郁郁葱葱的绿树和山上啜饮着一杯茶。 对于所有的大自然爱好者和寻求和平的人来说,这是一个确定的目的地。 而不仅仅是绿色和山丘,它也是着名的茶叶种植园和美味的自制巧克力! 期待分享更多我的旅行故事。 祝你有美好的一天!

@Sinclairs Retreat Ooty. Your post recalled my memory thank you.

I'd love to see people from Bangalore coming & joining Steemit. I'd loads of memories of Bangalore. Please don't get wrong whenever I see this name associated with anyone, I get emotionally attached coz 15 yrs of my life has been spent there. Anyways, thnx for this beautiful post. I'd travelled in Ooty too. Maybe I'd share that too in someday. Maybe it might not look the way yours does. But yes, I'll definitely give a try.

followed you to see your stories. Good luck :)
