It is not difficult to see why the tourist office in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu, wanted to change the name of this viewing point. It is less clear why they felt they needed a big sign to point it out.

On the day we were there, ‘Hazy View’ would have been a better description. At least the clouds lifted a bit so that we had some view!

The monkey on the motorbike in the car park provided a more rewarding motif.
