Country Vacations has its members all over the country. In the south the state of Tamil Nadu is one among them. Tamil Nadu, formerly known as the Coromandel Coast , is the 11 th largest state in India occupying 4% of the country's total area. It is bounded on the east by the Bay of Bengal , in the south by the Indian Ocean ' in the west by the Arabian Sea and the states of Kerala and Karnataka and in the north by Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.The State of Tamil Nadu has a hoary antiquity. Though early sangam classics throw historical references, we pass to recorded history only from the Pallavas.The southern states of India were under the hegemony of the Cholas, the Cheras and the Pandyas for centuries. The Pallavas held supremacy from about the second quarter of the fourth century A.D. They were the originators of the famous Dravidian style of temple architecture. Muslims gradually strengthened their position, which led to the establishment of the Bahamani Sultanate, by the middle of the 14th century. At the same time, the Vijayanagar Kingdom quickly consolidated itself and extended its sway over the whole of South India, and at the close of the century, Vijayanagar became the supreme power in South. However, it crumbled at the battle of Talikota in 1564 to the confederate forces of the Deccan Sultans.Tamil Nadu was one of the first of British settlements in India. The State is the successor to the old Madras Presidency, which covered the bulk of the southern peninsula in 1901. The composite Madras State was later reorganised, and the present Tamil Nadu was formed.Tamil Nadu is bounded on north by Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, on the west by Kerala, on the east by the Bay of Bengal, and on the south by the Indian Ocean. Country Vacations has several properties in the capital of Tamil Nadu, the city of Chennai. These properties are located around the city with good access for all the Country Vacations members. They are Zen Garden, Jade Resorts, T nagar, Mango Groove, CC Fitness Chennai. From Chennai, the capital and gateway to Tamil Nadu, no place is too far. Good road, rail and air services take the traveller to any point in the state with ease. There's plenty to delight the nature lover. Crowning the cluster of hills in the north-west part of the state are the Nilgiris – or ‘Blue Hills'. Udhagamandalam (Ooty) is the state's best-known hill station, with a wealth of eucalyptus trees that give the air a distinct fragrance. This 'Queen of the Hills' has a botanical garden, annual flower shows, select hotels, clubs, golf course, race course, tennis, horse-racing and shopping centres. Close by are Kotagiri, Coonoor, Doddabetta, Snowdown, Elk-Hill, Cairn Hills and Mukurti Peak. Further south is Kodaikanal, a quiet hill station, set around a lake that exudes colonial charm and showcases the coffee plantations of the south.
