According to latest data provided by the tourism department of Kerala and Karnataka, Coorg has attracted more tourists than Munnar has done. The previous year, Munnar was in the number one position which is now taken over by Coorg. There were 10,73, 961 tourists who visited Coorg; whereas only 3,53, 545 tourists made it to Munnar. What could be the reason behind this great difference? It should be noted that Munnar is ahead with infrastructure.
Kerala Tourism has taken pleasantly to the news and is working to better future tourism prospects. Munnar is a place with several unique attractions. No advertising can sell a product like quality can! Munnar has just what it takes for tourists to relax and want for more! Munnar is probably the most popular honeymoon destination in Kerala. There's romance in the air around here. As the stats have earlier proven a point, Coorg runs ahead as a choice for honeymoon couples as well. It could be said that it was mainly due to bad weather conditions in the monsoons, Munnar recieved 40 percent less tourists this time.
Indian Tourism Development Corporation has also placed Coorg as the top hill station in India after a recent survey. It is not for nothing that Coorg is enjoying one triumph after the other. Like Native Planet has said before, Coorg provides a true Joie-de-vivre experience.
With adventure activities and a never-ending list of places to visit, Coorg makes for a perfect holiday destination. What really gives Coorg the edge over Munnar is something we need to think over! Is it the weather? Accessibility? Or simply nature? The people perhaps? Whatever be the reason, Coorg has won several hearts! It is simply not enough if you visit the place once! This alluring hill station keeps pulling you back!
Hospitality is a major plus point for Coorg. Homestays are tourists' favourite here. Hence, the Tourism department has vowed to clear up unauthorised homestays around the region. With luxury hotels that plan your entire stay to hotels that let you free to explore the landscape all by yourself, Coorg attracts people from all genres of interest. Its not just the adorable elephants, the lush greens and sparkly waters with tea gardens or coffee plantations that is on the offer for tourists like it is at Munnar. Coorg offers a twist in the colours of nature, it includes people and culture of a different taste. Coorg has the best South Indian Buddhist Monastery at Bylakuppe which offers a different shade to tourism.
