The fabulous emerald vistas that embrace the hill town of Munnar, gave the English a sharp reminder of Old England, as they escaped to this sylvan world, away from the sweltering heat of the South’s urban spaces. Nostalgia about the days of the British Raj gather deep roots as you sip a perfect cup of tea at one of the homestays in the tea estates that are an integral part of the landscape here. On a bright sunny day you can picnic amongst the woodlands, go for nature walks and, if you plan ahead, even do a tour of how tea is manufactured.
