2025 Jan-India Thu 16. Periyar.

A transit day from Kochi to Periyar (5hr). 

As we left, we went up to the lush mountains. Here, there are a lot of rubber trees and tea plantations. Very green. This is probably the image of India I have in my mind - the old Dilma tea TV ads (yes, I know Dilmah was Sri Lankan).

We did a stopover at a spice farm as part of the transit. It was to learn about cinnamon (real vs. fake), vanilla beans (real vs. what you buy).

Periyar is a nice village/town. The weather is cooler than by the coast... Mountains are always better 😉
