Been sometime
took a long journey and explore places for the first and Munnar is one of my
dream destination I have planned to visit next week and I’m so excited to take
the travel through Anamalai Tiger Reserve and Chinnar Wildlife sanctuary instead
the national highways. I have prepared my own route map that travel through the
interiors (small cities and towns) that get me glimpses of many places which I
miss a lot traveling on National Highways. I have been trying to achieve this
trip for last few years, only this year things came closer. Actually I want to
be there last month, as soon the southwest monsoon end but for some reasons it
was postponed and I really don’t want to delay future so thus leaving off on
Sunday.
During my stay
at the woodhouse in Kodaikanal in July, I went up to the foothills of Munnar while
took a drive to Kurangani aka Bottom Station in the Bodi valley. It was a
former tram station where goods are transported from the mountains via Top
Station in Munnar before loaded into Lorries. It’s time for explore the above -
Munnar and I will leave you with a view on the mountains of Munnar, I shot long
back on my way to cloud mountain. This is one of my favourite locations on the
road to Cumbum valley near Veerapandi, but this spot hides away since the highway
take detour. Hope to take many lovely photos from the travel and you all take
care
Beautiful shot...I hope you have safe travel.

PS. Veerapandi = Kattabomman's birth place?
We are also having monsoon season now with more rains than ever. There is so much to see in beautiful India and I look forward to your photos. Air Asia has direct flights to Jaipur now and that might be my first destination.
