September 3, 2021 Leonardo Torrence

Popularly referred to as Ooty, this gem among southern hill resorts is covered in eucalyptus and pine trees and coffee and tea plantations. On a clear day, it's possible to see as far as the Mysore plateau from Dodabetta Peak, the district's most prominent viewpoint. The Stone House, a landmark 1822 bungalow, and St. Stephen's Church are remnants of the area's first British settlement. Also noteworthy: formal botanical gardens, a children's mini-garden and a contemporary art collection.

Moddy's Chocolates

Reviewed By 777kushl

Here are a few things u must must try ... 1. Chocolates made by them specifically their bon bons.. loved them so much that now I keep ordering more from them and they ship it . 2. hot chocolate drink that you can buy just outside.. 3. Soft serve ice cream. It's only vanilla but it's amazing. 4. Ferrero ice cream.. ate 2 of them in the same day. 5. Mini pizza Cons- The staff outside is over worked outside so might be a little difficult to get their attention. They might be really nice ppl but if u want anything out of the regular then wait till they are totally free.. that's usually after 7 pm

St. Stephen's Church

Reviewed By Good_Travel_Places - Kochi (Cochin), India

The church is a wonderful heritage building built during the British times. It was designed (if I remember correctly) by one of the Captains in the British Military as early as in 1830s. Unfortunately I could not see the inside due to Sunday Mass. If you are interested to visit the church inside, I would suggest visiting on a day other than Sunday.
