    I’ve heard the original colonial bungalow was converted into a small museum that still displays the original teak furniture and a portrait of the officer Daring. The tea shaded terrace above it is a quiet spot for watching tribal dance performances that are still held there each summer. The nearby Putudi Waterfall and the Coffee Garden both showcase how the British introduced coffee cultivation while the tribal communities adapted their own techniques, so you can see that blend in the landscape and in the local produce.
