Kodaikanal
Tamil Nadu, India
Kodaikanal is a popular hill station in the Palni Hills of Dindigul district, Tamil Nadu, sitting at about 2,200 meters above sea level and often called the “Princess of Hill Stations.” It was developed in the mid‑19th century by British officials and missionaries as a cool summer retreat away from the hot plains of southern India. The town is known for its mild climate, misty hills, pine forests, waterfalls, and the scenic 75‑acre Kodaikanal Lake, which is a hub for boating, cycling, and lakeside walks. Beyond its natural beauty, Kodaikanal draws visitors with forestry walks, viewpoints, the famous Kurinji flower that blooms once every twelve years, and its role as an educational and research center, including a historic astrophysics observatory.
