Chikmagalur literally mean the town of the younger daughter in Kannada. The town is said to be given in dowry to one of the clan chiefs and hence the peculiar nomenclature. The town is located in the southern part of Karnataka.  It was one of the first areas in India to have coffee plantations. The area is drained by the Tunga and Bhadra meandering down the Western Ghats. The tallest peak in the state lies near the hill station. This weekend getaway from Bangalore is surrounded by the eternal beauty of nature.
