Coimbatore
0422 / POP 1.06 MILLION
This large business and junction city - the second largest in Tamil Nadu, sometimes
known as the Manchester of India for its textile industry - is friendly enough, but the
dearth of interesting sights means that for most travellers it's just a stepping stone towards
Ooty or Kerala. It has plenty of accommodation and eating options if you need to spend
the night.
