If shopping were a sport, Ooty’s shopping would undoubtedly be the best. This tiny hill station has more small malls per square mile than any other hill station in the country, meaning that despite appearing as a small red dot on your map, it’s right up there with the country’s greatest shopping locations. In fact, travellers could only visit one street in the city — the famed Charing Cross Road – and still be astounded by the sheer amount and variety of bazaars available.
