Located in Coorg, the hill town of Madikeri was once the capital of Kodagu king Mudduraja in 1681 and was known as Mudduraja Keri. It later became famous as Madikeri. Lying at an elevation of about 1,170 m above the sea level, the town is famous for its oranges and coffee. Believed to be the descendants of Alexander the Great's soldiers when the country was invaded in 327 BC, Kodavas is a fiercely independent clan that could never be conquered by Tipu Sultan or by the British forces.
Madikeri is a preferred weekend getaway, and there are plenty of things to see and do here. You can visit the Bhagamandala temple, Madikeri fort, Omkareshwara temple, Kushalnagar, Nisargadhama (picnic spot), and Abbey falls. The falls are a part of a coffee plantation. It is located at a distance of about 120 km.
