Shailaja and Ronnie Das visited Munnar, one of the most idyllic hill-stations in South India. Munnar is a combination of the beautiful Nilgiri mountains with its bubbling rivers and streams, quaint British nostalgia, and rolling tea-plantations. You can spend lovely vacations here re-charging your batteries - mountain walks, wildlife watching, golf and fishing are some of the things that can keep you busy. The Tata Tea company own most of the estates here and manages almost every public facility.
