Ooty

Ooty is a perfect weekend gateway and overnight journey away from cities like Bengaluru and Mysuru. There are plenty of things to explore like Tiger Hill, Pykara Lake, Doddabetta Peak, Ooty Lake, Botanical Garden, etc. If you have more days in your hand, you could also try visiting Coonoor, which hardly an hour away.

Talking about Ooty, you should definitely read my essay on how I proposed my wife, because it happened in Ooty 😉.
