On 4th day morning after
breakfast we boarded a luxury bus which was hired by the tour operator and was
with us until we reached at KanyaKumari.
Our destination on the fourth day was Munnar
a tiny beautiful hill station in Kerala. Journey was bit tiring because we were
moving up and feeling queasiness yet
it was worth because the beauty of the place that kept me awake and tried to
capture each frame with my camera.

Munnar
Munnar town is situated on the Kannan Devan Hills village in Devikulam
taluk and is the largest panchayat in the Idukki
district in Kerala The region in and around Munnar varies in height from 1,450
meters to 2,695 meters above mean sea level.
The temperature ranges between 5 °C and 25 °C in winter and 15 °C and 25
°C in summer.
Flora
and fauna
Most of the native flora and
fauna of Munnar have disappeared due to severe habitat fragmentation resultant
from the creation of the plantations. However, some species continue to survive
and thrive in several protected areas nearby, including the new Kurinjimala Sanctuary to the east, the Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary, Manjampatti
Valley and the Amaravati reserve forest of Indira Gandhi Wildlife Sanctuary to
the north east, the Eravikulam National
Park.
