About Ooty

Ooty (Udhagamandalam), perched at 2,240 meters in the Nilgiri Mountains, was developed as a summer retreat by the British in the 19th century. The Nilgiri Mountain Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, chugs through 16 tunnels and over 250 bridges on its route from Mettupalayam. Vast tea estates carpet the surrounding hillsides, and the Government Botanical Garden, established in 1848, houses over 1,000 plant species including a fossilized tree trunk believed to be 20 million years old.
