Coorg / Kodagu - Scotland of the East (Photo Gallery)

A land of chivalry and pride, a life of solitary splendour, rich food and spices is in short termed Coorg. Smell the coffee, taste the oranges, flavour with cardamom and savor the honey. Popularly termed as the Scotland of India, Madikeri, the district capital of Coorg is 1525m above sea level. Sparkling valleys, lush green mountain ranges, awesome weather...all beckon you to the land of warriors. The Dubare forest, situated in the south of Coorg is an Elephant haven. It was here that originally elephants were trained for Dasara celebrations held in Mysore every year in the month of October. Here you can simply spend hours just watching elephants. Nisargadhama is a popular family holiday spot. With ample cottages spread over forest area, it is an ideal place to spot deers.
