MANJOLAI-Situated nearby of "TIRUNELVELI" corporation (TAMILNADU), from there you have govt. buses plying to this hill station.
You can say this place is a "VIRGIN" land, where it combine both beauty and calm, but many amenities are missing, including essential accommodation and food, however if you know the BBTC official they will take care of you.
The place lead to this smal scenic hill station is comes under the Kalakad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve, so you will anxious to see Tiger, but I bet you wont see it, a native told me that he last seen tiger way back in 1995 !
Place to see: (may be only one place to visit !)
Don't miss the top of mountain view, probably 25% of southern India, don't loose your heart to reach that place, it will take at least 3-4 hours to reach there but those kind of place you may not visit too often.
While reaching that place you have some good scenery as well, they are
1.good golf yard
2.Tea which meant for export production
3.small and beautiful villages
- some medium size forest.
For those who dont know any body in the uphill (actually if you are employee of BBTC-Tea factory or known to the official then you can stay there otherwise staying in the hill is almost impossible) can take vehicle or boarding at govt bus(i would recommend this method), as very little place you can see), early in the morning and may get down in the evening.
You can buy Tea pocket fresh from factory outlet, which is tasting good.
It is a unique travel experience compare to other station.
Enjoy your visit to MANJOLAI.
