The best shopping in Munnar isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Tea plantations and Eravikulam National Park are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Lakkam Waterfalls — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
