– best places to visit in wayanad hill station

Recently planned for a short summer trip to Wayanad Hill Station, a wonderful summer getaway location in Kerala. The name Wayanad is derived from “Vayal Nadu” which means the land of paddy fields. Wayanad has pleasant weather throughout the year.

Wayanad is the best place for people who love activities and adventure. We visited most of the key Wayanad tourist places like Thirunelli Temple – ancient Lord Maha Vishnu at the Brahmagiri hill, Banasura Sagar Dam – the second largest earthen dam in Asia, Pookode Lake – a beautiful freshwater lake with boating, Neelimala Viewpoint, Edakkal Caves – ancient stone age carvings in South India. Even though our plan had Tholpetti Wildlife Sanctuary and Soochipara Waterfalls, they were closed temporarily because of the off-season.
