MY TRIP TO MYSORE AND OOTY_03: This is one of the best places to visit.

Ooty:
Ooty (Udhagamandalam / Ootacamand) On the way via Bandipur Wild Life Sanctuary.

Places to see:

Ooty lake: Every lake has its own importance, but this one is a tourist spot where the lake is covered with all the trees and has the shopping of few of the rare articles available. When you go for the boating is an another good remembering one.

Botanical Gardens: This has some very rare trees brought from different countries and looking them will have a good feel due to presence of the trees which you might not have had a chance to see.

Doda Betta (Highest point in South India): Doda Betta (2,637 m), the highest peak in the Nilgiris, is at the eastern extremity of Ooty. A motorable road leads to the peak, from where, on a clear day,a panoramic view can be had, not only of Ooty but also of Coonoor, Wellington, Kundah, the distant plains of Coimbatore. There is a telescope house at Doda Betta from which you can view the locations.

Coonoor (19 Kms) Tea Gardens Sim’s Park: This is the garden where all the tea plants are present on the hills, with a very good view of the clouds and cold climate.

Dolphin’s Nose: Dolphin’s Nose around 10 km. away from Coonoor is an excellent viewpoint. It encompasses the Catherine Falls. Lambs nose is another point on the way to Dolphins Nose that too exposes a vast panorama of the close clouds, cold and scenario.

Shopping (famous for Tea and Eucalyptus Oil): Nice place to shop, with famous Tea and Eucalyptus oil. You can also find some other things which are not seen at places.
