About Ooty
Udhagamandalam (Ooty), headquarters of The Nilgiris district in Tamil Nadu, sits roughly 90 km north of Coimbatore via NH 181 and the winding ghat roads of the Nilgiri Hills. Developed as a hill station by the British in the early 19th century, Ooty retains a strong colonial-era character in its bungalows, churches, and the Government Botanical Garden, which remains a major horticultural attraction. Tea plantations dominate the surrounding slopes, forming a key economic backbone alongside tourism, while the Toda tribal community represents the region’s indigenous heritage. Ooty Lake and the UNESCO-listed Nilgiri Mountain Railway, climbing from Mettupalayam through Coonoor to Ooty, define its identity. HJ Cabs provides reliable 24/7 taxi service across Ooty for local and outstation travel.
