Why is Coorg a favourite tourist spot for nature lovers?

               Coorg, also known as Kodagu, is a hill station located in Karnataka famous for its coffee and tea plantations. Coorg is called the ‘Scotland of India’ and also the ‘Kashmir of the South’, because of its majestic beauty and cool climate.

               The rain-drenched forests and mountain ranges provide a unique ecosystem in which many species of birds, animals, and plants find sustenance.

               It also scores as a popular destination because of its culture and people. The Kodavas, a local clan specializing in martial arts, are especially notable for their keen hospitality. Some of the most popular tourist attractions in Kodagu include Talakaveri, Bhagamandala, Nisargadhama, Abbey Falls, Dubare, Nagar hole National Park, Iruppu Falls, and the Tibetan Buddhist Golden Temple.
