The God's own country: Beautiful Munnar-Kochi[Cochin]

in #travel8 years ago (edited)


Munnar is one of the most known hill station in Kerala, India. It's around 120 Kms away from Cochin(nearest airport) which is know to be God's own country. Munnar, Cochin and other hill stations in Kerala are famous for their natural beauties, herbs, panchkarma(ayurvedic) therapy and tea gardens. Munnar along with Coorg(another hill station of India) are also know as honeymoon destinations of India.

I had also visited Cochin and Munnar and could spend most of trip's time in Munnar.

Major attractions in Munnar:

  • Famous for herbs across the globe. In-fact, the whole state has the similar quality.




  • Flora and Fauna garden. You can have a glimpse of rarest plants here.


  • Tea garden across mountains of Munnar.



  • Munnar tea Museum.

We also came to know about a flower named "Neelakurinji"(related to Brahmadev). It blossoms once in 12 years, hence so rare

How can we reach to Munnar?

There are various medium by which we can reach to Munnar. These might prove to be most convinient

  • Go to Cochin by plane and take a public transport like bus.
  • Go to Ernakulam by train(it's the nearest railway station) and take a public transport like bus.


You can also hire a taxi and can reach to Munnar. But, if you are travelling alone, it's arround 35 times more expensive than a public transport.
