Detail InformationEdit

Thread Garden a popular tourist spot and a haven for all those with creative fingers, this is an innovative and aesthetic creation of an artificial garden of plants and flowers all woven by thread. Surprisingly, no needles are used in the process. This artificially embroidered garden bearing natural models of plants and flowers using self developed technology of “hand wound embroidery” has taken 12 years with the effort of 50 lady artists, using more than 6 crore meters of embroidery threads. You will not help wonder how beautifully these pieces are crafted. Once you buy one of these beautiful pieces of craft, you should preserve them carefully without exposing them directly to sunlight or artificial light. You should use only cotton to clean the glass case and don’t try to cover out from the base, as it is permanently fixed. Your trip to Ooty would be incomplete without a visit to this unique garden that exhibits such outstanding craftsmanship.
