Devikulam
Located
16 kms from Munnar, this gorgeous hill station symbolises nature in her pristine
glory. The crisp and cool mountain air heavily laden with the fragrance of wild
flowers and rare herbs is any nature lover's paradise.
The Sita Devi Lake offers rejuvenating springs of mineral water and is also
a favourite picnic spot among tourists. Besides the expansive tea plantations,
a spice garden run by the district tourism promotion council nurtures a wide
variety of spices.
The idyllic hill station with its velvet lawns, exotic flora and fauna and the
cool mountain air offers a rare experience to visitors. The Sita Devi Lake is
an ideal place for trout fishing.
Irresistibly green slopes touching the sky at a thousand metres. Silent clusters
of slender red and blue gum trees. A lovely, little lake hidden within the rolling
hills. This is Devikulam. A dainty town sixteen kilometres southwest of Munnar.
A perfect picture of fairy-tale enchantment. The legend has it that once Sita
Devi, the holy consort of Lord Rama, came down to frolic in the lake and the
place came to be spoken about as 'Devikulam' (meaning the lake of the goddess),
ever since.
