Kodaikanal


Hello Folks,

Greetings from Kodaikanal. Kodaikanal is a beautiful mountain place in South India. Its lush green surroundings are very attractive. It is a very important tourist destination for people from all over the world.
Kodaikanal is also known for the Kurinji Flowers ( Scientifically known as Strobilanthes kunthianes )( Picture ) which blooms every 12 years. The last mass flowering was noticed in the year 2006. The previous mass flowering was noticed in the year 1992. You dont get to see Kurinji mass flowering nowadays as most of the lands have become farmsteads in the recent years.


It is a resort on the Western Ghats.

Come to Kodaikanal and enjoy the place. Keep Kodai Clean and Green Always.
