	Monsoon Ideas
	Ooty is one of the most frequented hill stations in Tamil Nadu. Literally meaning Abode of Clouds, it is located in the Nilgiris and remains busy throughout the year. The landscape is marked by undulating hills covered in lush tea gardens. The climate remains pleasant throughout the year, with temperatures rarely rising beyond 25 degrees. Located at a high altitude, the monsoon further enhances its appeal. The green hills turn greener and mist covers the hill throughout. You must carry raincoats and umbrellas


	Things to see & do
	Tea Gardens: Ooty is characterised by miles and miles of rolling hills of tea estates, which greet travelers at regular intervals. You can also take an appointment at a tea estate and watch the entire process of tea brewing. Botanical Gardens: These are well-laid out gardens with shady trees and myriad range of flowers. The main attraction here is the fossilised tree trunk, believed to be almost 20 million years old. The garden is also a host to the Summer Festival held every year in May, with a grand Flower Show taking centre-stage. Ooty Lake: This artificial lake is a favourite spot for boating. It also has a lake garden, a jetty, snack bars, pony rides and toy train rides. Churches: Two of the well known churches in the area are the Union Church and Holy Trinity Church. Both of these have magnificent stained glass windows, intricately carved pews and quiet cemeteries. The oldest church in the Nilgiris is St Stephen’s, characterized by its huge wooden beams. The Kandal Church houses a relic of the True Cross on which Christ was crucified. Charing Cross: This is a road junction with is bordered by markets. You will find here the popular Spencers departmental store, which sells its own Planter's Special cigars, made of Indian tobacco. Ootacmund Club: This is one of the most exclusive of British Clubs. The Ooty Hunt, which is a pursuit of jackals by hounds, is one of prime offerings of the club. Ketti Valley: This is the 2nd longest in the world and offers enchanting views for miles, especially on a winter morning. Adventure: Lots of adventure options to choose from. You can climb the highest peak at the Dodda Betta Mountain and catch glimpses of the Nilgiris. The Tourism Department also arranges hang-gliding courses from March to May every year. Picnic Spots: Wenlock Downs is Ooty’s most popular picnic spot and is a vast expanse of rolling hiils. Other picnic spots are the Ninth Mile and Sandy Nallah, which is also a spot for film shoots.


	Gourmet Treats
	A popular hill station, food places are available aplenty. It has several Chinese restaurants but Shinkows opposite the Nilgiri Library, continues to occupy top slot. For some authentic South India dosas, vadas and sambar, head out to Kurinji on Commercial Road. Don’t forget the Nilgiri special, varki, which is available at West Coast Bakery.


	Shopping Fiesta
	Tea what else! Pick up some varieties of tea, delectable home made chocolates, aroma oils and spices. The King Star Confectionery offers the most heavenly chocolates you can ever find! The TN state handicrafts centre is most frequented for handicrafts. Ooty’s most unique product is the crafts of the Toda tribals.
