Munnar is a beautiful hill station, and was the summer resort of the British. The town itself is typically Indian with the usual shops, guest houses and is really beautiful and traditional. It is a good place to stay to see the surrounding countryside. The region in and around Munnar varies in height from 1,500 m to 2,695 m above sea level. It is pronounced "Moon-aar" short for "moonu aar" meaning 3 rivers. Three rivers - Mattupetti, Nallathanni and Periavaru which flow through this town, but join some distance away from Munnar. Munnar is famous for its tea plantations, many of them started by the British. The "Kannan Devan" brand of Tea is cultivated and processed here.

Taken amongst the tea plantations of Nuwara Eliya. It was founded by Samuel Baker, the discoverer of Lake Albert and the explorer of the Nile in 1846. Nuwara Eliya's climate lent itself to becoming the prime sanctuary of the British civil servants and planters in Ceylon. Nuwara Eliya, called Little England, was a hill country retreat where the British colonialists could immerse in their pastimes such as fox hunting, deer hunting, elephant hunting, polo, golf and cricket. Many of the buildings retain features from the colonial period such as the Queen's Cottage, General's House, Grand Hotel, Hill Club, St Andrew's Hotel and Town Post Office. New hotels are often built and furnished in the colonial style.

Voted one of the Best Boutique Hotels in the World, '98 Acres' in Ella, Sri Lanka is a truly idyllic experience. Set in a Tea Plantation, at over 2000 metres, it is literally a breathe of fresh air. I stayed here with my wife for a couple nights earlier this month (Feb 2018). What an amazing place.............. Nikon D750 16-35mm f4.0 VR Wide Angle Zoom Lens.
