Tucked away in the mountains, in the south is Coorg, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful spots in India. Here, beauty stares at you in many forms – vast acres in myriad shades of green, little houses with red roofs enjoying the mountain air, orange blossoms lining the streets. It is the land of cardamom and coffee, of oranges and cashew, of brave army generals and happy people.
The women here wear the saree in a style so unique, that its very elegance is intriguing. The pleats of the saree are not in front but at the back forming a fan. The pallu covering the chest is brought over the right shoulder. This is held in place with a broach or a pin. And as they walk, the pleats behind gently swing giving the impression of the long train, lending grace and elegance to the already exceedingly beautiful women of this land.
