Thally

Once a popular destination with the British, Thally {or Thalli} in Tamil Nadu’s Krishnagiri is known for its cool climate. And that’s why it was called ‘Little England’ by the colonisers. While there aren’t many touristy spots here, you can drive through the small town and discover its beauty. The hillocks in the town make for excellent hiking. The half-destroyed Denkanikottai Fort that was built in 16th century is also worth exploring.
