Ooty
Ootacamund or Udhagamandalam, which stands 7,349 feet above sea level
in the Nilgiris, is known as the Queen of southern hill
resorts of India.
Ooty, as it is popularly known, spreads over 36 square miles, and the
temperature ranges from 25 degree celsius in summers, to near freezing
in winters.
This famous hill station is at the junction of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and
Karnataka, three southern states of India. It was founded by the Britishers,
in the early part of the 19th century, to serve as summer headquarters
for the government of Madras. Before that time, the area was inhabited
by Todas. These tribal people still inhabit the area, but only around
3000 remain.
