Flanked by the hill Stations
Though all life is supposed to have originated from the oceans, at least in the humans’ case, there seems to be something which pulls us to the heights of mountains. It was the British who christened many mountains as a hill-station and started treating them like retreats. Anyway, now that the British are not around, we have free access to the mountains, hill stations. And those near Amaravathi nagar are strategically placed to make use of this fact, the beautiful hill stations like Munnar, Kodaikanal, Thirumoorthy, Valparai all just a short ride away.
