Munnar

Tea, mist and time — emerald plantations rolling through the high Western Ghats.

Munnar is a landscape shaped by tea, mist and time — endless plantations rolling across emerald slopes, cloud drifting through the valleys, and cool mountain air that has drawn travellers up the hairpins since the British planted these hills.

Curator's Advisory

Leave early for every viewpoint — mist thickens by late morning. The winding roads take longer than the map admits, and evenings want a warm layer.
