Start your first day exploring the beauty of the Kurinji Andavar Temple, dedicated to Lord Murugan. The temple's architecture is fascinating, with intricate carvings and sculptures that reflect its ancient Dravidian-style. What's genuinely charming about this temple is its location; situated atop a hill and surrounded by stunning views of the Western Ghats. Take a leisurely stroll in the temple complex, unwind, and feel the peace that lingers around. The temple is open every day from 7:00 am until 7:00 pm.
Begin your second day of Kodaikanal trip after a sumptuous breakfast by visiting the Coaker's Walk. This picturesque pedestrian way offers a stunning 360-degree panoramic view of the valley, hills, and plains. It's the ideal spot to spend some relaxing time taking in the serene atmosphere. If you're up for adventure, there are telescopes available on the walk that can provide visitors with an even closer view of distant landscapes. Coakers Walk is open to the public from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm every day.
If you have extra time, you must visit the Pillar Rocks and Silver Cascades. It is one of the most famous places in Kodaikanal and has magnificent views of the valley. For couples, a visit to Bryant Park or a boat ride across the Kodaikanal Lake is ideal. You can also try the famous plate of hot samosas from the various food stalls located in the city centre. If you have a busy schedule, skip visiting Bryant Park or Kodaikanal Lake to make time for a boat ride in Berijam Lake, which is less visited and more serene.
