OOTY BOAT HOUSE
From just behind the Main Bus Stand (also near the Railway station) the famous Ooty Lake stretches, in an irregular 'L' shape, for about two kilometres in length and varrying distances in width. At the far end is the Boat House where all kinds of boats are available for hire from eight in the morning to six in the evening. During summer seasons, in May, boat races and boat pageantry are organised on two days at the lake which draw huge crowds.
The beautiful Ooty Lake is a favourite haunt of tourists. It was constructed in
the year 1825, through the initiatives of Mr. John Sullivan, the then Collector
of Coimbatore. This lake was built in order to provide an irrigation tank to the
people. |
