About Nilgiris
The Nilgiris district, home to the hill station of Ooty (Udhagamandalam), has been a sought-after retreat since the British colonial era. The Nilgiri Mountain Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage rack railway, climbs through tea-carpeted slopes and 16 tunnels from Mettupalayam to Ooty. The district is also home to indigenous tribal communities like the Toda, Kota, and Irula, whose traditions predate recorded history.
About Tenkasi
Tenkasi is best known for Courtallam (Kutralam), celebrated as the "Spa of South India" for its medicinal waterfalls enriched with herbs from the Western Ghats forests. The Kasi Viswanathar Temple, built by the Pandya kings in the 15th century, gives the town its name, meaning "Kasi of the South." Separated from Tirunelveli as a new district in 2019, Tenkasi's lush green landscape and waterfall season (June to November) attract visitors from across the country.
