Kodaikanal, often called the "Princess of Hills," is a highly sought-after hill station in Tamil Nadu, known for its serene beauty. It sits at an elevation of around 7,000 feet above sea level and was established as a destination by British officials and Christian missionaries in 1845. However, references to this picturesque hill station date back to ancient Sangam literature.

The appeal of Kodaikanal lies in its hills, cascading waterfalls and lakes. Visitors can indulge in boating, cycling, horse riding, and trekking activities. One unique natural spectacle in this region is the rare Kurinji flower, which blooms only once every 12 years, making it a must-see event for nature enthusiasts.
