Nestled in the Shevaroy Hills of the Eastern Ghats, Yercaud is a serene hill station in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Known for its lush greenery, coffee plantations, and pleasant climate, Yercaud is often referred to as the "Jewel of the South." The name Yercaud is derived from the Tamil words "Yeri" (lake) and "Kaadu" (forest), aptly describing its picturesque landscape dominated by a beautiful lake surrounded by dense forests.
Yercaud's history dates back to the early 19th century when it was discovered by the British as a summer retreat. The region's cool climate and fertile soil made it ideal for coffee cultivation, and soon, coffee plantations began to flourish. Today, Yercaud is not only a popular tourist destination but also a significant coffee-growing region.
The town is dotted with colonial-era buildings, adding a touch of historical charm. Visitors can explore the Yercaud Lake, a tranquil spot perfect for boating, or take a leisurely stroll through the Anna Park, which showcases a variety of native plants. The Lady's Seat offers panoramic views of the plains below, while the Kiliyur Falls, cascading down from a height of 300 feet, is a must-visit for nature lovers.
Yercaud is also home to the Shevaroy Temple, dedicated to Lord Shevaroyan, the presiding deity of the hills. The temple, located at the highest point in Yercaud, offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. For those interested in horticulture, the Orchidarium, maintained by the Botanical Survey of India, houses a diverse collection of orchids and other exotic plants.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat or an adventure in nature, Yercaud offers a perfect blend of both, making it an ideal destination for travelers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
