India
Munnar
Tea plantations cascade down misty hills where mountain air carries cardamom scents and colonial charm lingers.
Munnar unfolds in emerald waves across the Western Ghats, where tea bushes carpet rolling hillsides and morning mist drifts through eucalyptus groves. The pace here matches the careful rhythm of tea pickers working the slopes, while mountain weather shifts from cool dawns to warm afternoons that invite long walks through spice gardens.
