High above the sea level, situated at the junction of the two ghat ranges of the Sahayadri Hills, Nilgiri district provides a fascinating view. Kerala on the west, the Mysore State on the north, and Coimbatore district in Tamil Nadu on the east and south bound it. Headquarters of Nilgiris district is Udhagamandalam (also called as Ooty).
