Yercaud, an “Hill-arious” place!
Recently we had been to a place called Yercaud, popularly known hill station near Salem, Tamil Nadu. Initially, the plan was to visit Hogenakkal falls and drive back to B’lore. But then, after finishing the regular tasks at Hogenakkal, the majority is of the opinion, to visit some other places near by. Since it was the long weekend, so all agreed. We checked with one of our Tamilnadu friend, he suggested a Hill station “Yercaud”
Yercaud, a Hill station near Salem. We reached Salem at around 7PM. We went on to check with someone regarding the route and the hotel information. Luckily we got some help from a person who not only helped us regarding the route but also helped in booking rooms in Yercaud.
After traveling around 20 hair pin curves, we safely reached destination at around 9.30PM. It was indeed a wise decision to have dinner at Salem itself. Anyway, decided to take rest and to wake up early in the morning to roam around.
I think, it was almost 9-10AM when we decided to go for site seeing. We thought of going to the hill-top. The place was amazing, full of fog. We even played giant-wheel. So it was real fun. I am posting few pics here. Check it out!
We have stayed in Classic Cottage.Check out some of the snaps @ http://www.tripadvisor.in/Hotel_Review-g1009352-d1178955-Reviews-Classic_Cottage-Yercaud_Tamil_Nadu.html .
BTW, rooms were clean and location was also good. It was a real good experience and had lots of fun, I should say.

I would say its a nice summary of the trip for those who want to visit Yercaud. Also it was memorable trip and we had lot of fun.
I think you forgot to mention about mouth watering Mirchi bhaji, and Gobi 65 which they served hot and instantly on the top of the hill. It was totally out of the world !!!… we realy enjoyed it, and spoiled the stomach too .. ha ha ha
