Enveloped by a gradient of blue hills, perfectly manicured botanical gardens, lush tea estates and clean mountain air, the city is the textbook definition of a breath of fresh life.
Country houses and buildings fashioned in colonial-era architecture blend effortlessly with the picturesque back drop of a crystal clear, rich blue Lake Gregory, creating a sense of old-age romance and adventure, straight from a Jane Eyre novel.
