Munnar (Malayalam: മൂന്നാ൪ , Tamil: மூணார்) is a town located in the southern state of Kerala in India. The name is most often used to refer to the whole tourist area, of which the town forms a part. The etymology of Muannar is believed to be derived from the Malayalam words Muunu (three) and aaru (river), referring to the town's strategic location at the confluence of the mountain streams of Muthirappuzha, Chanduvarai and Kundala. Situated at nearly 1,600 to 1,800 meters above sea level, the region is surrounded by vast jungles and remains wet and cold during most of the year. Nearby is the Mattupetty Dam. Coordinates: 10°09′N, 77°06′E The people of Munnar share in the culture and traditions of Kerala. Tamil immigrants from the neighbouring state of Tamil Nadu also figure significantly in the population.

Munnar is a hill station in Kerala, southern most state of India very scenic, plenty of tea gardens etc. Best way to go is to go to Cochin and hire a taxi from there. If u plan to stay better book accomodation in advance.

I've been there and I love'd the view.But the only thing that put me off was the food.
I must say the ride up there was too good to be true.I saw elephent's near the water fall on the way up there.some tiger's too.
it was a coze ride in a car for only Rs 1500/- about £12/-
if anyone's going up there have a good time.
