The plaque near the Putudi trail also explains how the British tried to grow tea and coffee there, and the local Khandi people taught the workers how to harvest the leaves. The tea shaded terrace above the museum is still used for small gatherings, and you can hear a few traditional drums echoing from the nearby hills. If you’re staying close to the hill, the Mayfair Palm Beach Resort Gopalpur is a convenient base. Have you checked whether the Coffee Garden has a guided walk that highlights the colonial planting layout?
