We were in Munnar last week.
Munnar in monsoon is mindblowingly beautiful.
One of the "Must see' places in Munnar is the "Top Station" on the Kerala - Tamil Nadu border in South India.
As the same suggests, it is one of the highest points of Kannan Devan Hill ranges @ 6170 feet. It used to be the highest station on the Kundala valley railway - now defunct - built by British to transport tea chest from hills to railway station in Bodinayakanur. It overlooks a breathtakingly beautiful valley giving you a 180 degree view.
We went there in the afternoon. The fog was rising up. The sun was still shining. The shadow play on the hills was already on.
We clicked this picture. We liked the contrast of red roof of a building - a church - with surrounding green.
The blue sky with white clouds completed the frame. Click on the picture to see it in original size.
We urge you to go to Munnar now when it is raining. It is green everywhere disturbed only by the white cascades flowing from the mountains.
We will come back with detailed posts on our experience in Munnar. Stay tuned.
