Lush green valleys, terraced plantations and a pleasant climate make Kodaikanal one of Tamil Nadu's most popular hill stations. Kodaikanal or Kodai as it is commonly called was first discovered by American missionaries in the 1840s. Drawn by its climate and clean environs, they created a sanatorium cum retreat here.
This picturesque town is spread out around the man-made, star studded Kodai Lake. The 4 km long trail around the lake makes for a pleasant walk.
Beyond the city centre are a number of scenic areas, such as Pillar rocks, Silver Cascade and Green Valley view which offer enchanting picnic spots and views of the deep valley. A trail following the hill side, called Coaker's walk provides a panoramic view of the hill station.
Some 3 kms north east of the lake is the Kurunji Andavar Temple, dedicated to Lord Muruga. It is named after the amazing kurunji flowers associated with the God.
