Udhagamandalam (also Ootacamund ( listen )) and abbreviated as Udhagai and Ooty (
listen ), is a town and municipality in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It is located 80 km north of Coimbatore and is the capital of the Nilgiris district. It is a popular hill station located in the Nilgiri Hills.
Originally occupied by the Todas, the area came under the rule of the East India Company at the end of the 18th century. The economy is based on tourism and agriculture, along with manufacture of medicines and photographic film. The town is connected by the Nilgiri ghat roads and Nilgiri Mountain Railway. Its natural beauty attract tourists and is a popular summer destination. As of 2011, the town had a population of 88,430.
The origin of the name Udhagamandalam is obscure. The first mention of the place occurs in a letter of March 1821 to the Madras Gazette from an unknown correspondent as Wotokymund. In early times it was called OttaikalMandu. "Mund" is the Tamil word for a Toda village, and the first part of the name is probably a corruption of the local name for the central region of the Nilgiri Plateau. Another likely origin of the stem of the name (Ootaca) comes from the local language in which Otha-Cal literally means Single Stone. This is perhaps a reference to a sacred stone revered by the local Toda people. The name probably changed under British rule from Udhagamandalam to Ootacamund, and later was shortened to Ooty.
Udhagamandalam railway station is a terminus station in Ooty, Tamil Nadu. The terminus is a part of the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, a World Heritage Site.
The station was opened in year 1908, when Nilgiri Mountain Railway line was extended to Udhagamandalam. The railway code for Udhagamandalam is UAM.

Avalanche is the top most peak of South India. Not Doddabetta. Because it is a remote area and most of them don't know about that place. Avalache is around 240 feet higher than Doddabetta. And the noise at the back, it's because of the hard wind blowing from all the directions!! The was bad and windy! And the temperature was 6°C.
