Romancing the Nilgiris
Kotagiri is 20 km from Coonoor and believe it or not, the only reason I went there was because the road is very good and I had a two-wheeler!
Facing the gust of wind, I could feel the chill in the air every time I drove through the shadows cast by the trees!
Airfare for Rs 599 and less!
I admit I was driving a little too fast on a road which turns about 270 degree without you seeing the road ahead. It was not wise. But it was, no doubt exciting!
There are many more places to visit in and around Coonoor and Ooty. But if you are a nature lover you will find beauty at every step of the Nilgiris.
