Destinations: Yercaud

Need a vacation? In search of a place to travel and relax? Then this post is for you.This time we will be taking a look at Yercaud,a beautiful hill station near Salem.Yercaud is 160 kms from Trichy and should only take you around 5 hours maximum if you are travelling by a car or bike.
Yercaud is unfortunately not as well-known as Kodaikanal or Ooty,but that could be a blessing in disguise for us who prefer quiet,still and peaceful time.Yercaud is not a big place at all. About 20 kms across could take you through the entire place.
