During the British rule of India, Munnar was developed to cultivate tea plants. Most of the top positions in the estates were occupied by the British "Managers". A few bungalows were built for them and these are still in use. It is also believed that Munnar was a favourite place for the British who sought a cooler climate.
Munnar is sometimes referred to as the "Switzerland of India" for its natural surroundings and Old World architecture.
