Awesome place, really well made artefactsJust opposite the Ooty Lake, lies the little Thread Garden of Ooty, full of beautiful artificial flowers. But wait! The flowers aren’t the plastic ones available in your neighbourhood gift shop. Those, instead, are made up of threads.As you enter the dimly-lit space, brightly coloured flowers, plants and lawns will welcome you, and those are all woven to take the form that you see today. A garden of flowers which will never die, the leaves which won’t dry, and the plants which are bound to retain their vividness for long.Ooty Thread Garden Entry Fee30 per person for Adults15 per Kid (5 to 15 Yrs)50 for Still Camera100 for Video CameraOoty Thread Garden Address: North Lake Road, Opp. Boat House, Kathadimattam, Ooty, Tamil Nadu, 643001, India

We are going in December 2018. This small place was fantastic. What skill! The flowers look real. Really amazing to see the display.Each flower, stem and grass in this garden is made by hand weaving silk threads on canvas or frames. Many of the flowers are so realistic that from a slight distance it’s impossible to find out that’s artificial!

This is located just opposite the lake. They have created an entire small forest ecosystem using just threads on canvas. You will find various types of plants and bushes which look extremely realistic and made just with thread.There is also a sales counter from where you can buy these flowers and plants made from thread or you can just touch and feel the demo pieces kept to feel the work. All in all it is a pretty amazing place to see what wonders can be made just with threads.

This place is a waste of time! Its amazing what work they have done there. But you just walk through a corridor and there are things made up of thread all over. You dont see anything from close. Its a recently made private place, nothing great about it. Great work by the people who have made it though!

It’s a very small place. 15-20 mins view. You may directly walk-in after Ooty lake view and boat ride. You don’t need to move the vehicle from lake parking. 12 years of hard work is clearly seen. You will be amazed for sure !!

One of those rare instances of human persistence, devotion and painstaking labor. This is a hidden gem in Ooty and I definitely recommend checking this place out and definitely help spread the word. It goes on to show how if someone puts all of his energy and time into doing something, chances are that person will accomplish it and with great results. The detail with thread and the overall thread work will leave anyone amazed and stunned with awe.

This is an artificial garden which have various types of flowers and plants made of thread. These skillfully hand-made flowers look like real once. Tremendous efforts are taken by artist for this.Its actually an excellent piece of artwork, however some people, specially youngsters will find it boring and not worth watching for the entry fee they pay for.But frankly, the entry fees is not much as that much is must for the artist to survive. So its okay to go n watch.

And if u want to buy homemade chocolates in cheap beside this garden itself u will find the chocolate shop.. Price 300/KgRegarding the garden .. Its not the place if you want to enjoy or take some lovely pics. Its a place for art lovers. Appreciate the efforts of the 50 girls who spent their 12 years making those flowers.

Thread Garden... first thread garden in the world was promoted by Antony Joseph.... Every flower and plant are made by threads. Which look very beautiful and attractive.Besides this a live plant nursery of ornaments are present...which is beautiful that we feel satisfy the investment of 20 rupees as entering fee.When you visit Ooty you must visit it, it is almost 1.3km away from Ooty bus or railway station (in front of boat house)

Thread garden is right opposite to Ooty lake and is unique in concept, but the beauty of the work is lost due to poor maintenance. The effort made by the people behind it is definitely commendable but failure on the part of the authorities to maintain cleanliness and proper lighting mars the entire experience.

Thread garden is situated just opposite of Ooty Lake & is a small shed like place, however, the importance of this place / or USP of this place is it is made by around 50 girls for over a period of 12 years with around 70 million metre thread all in a continuous shape of threads & grass. For the lover of art & nature, it is a must watch. Just opposite they also have a small flower garden to see.

The Artificial Plant Kingdom – The Thread Garden. A magnificent display of flowers, plants and lawns fabricated entirely from thread, canvas and wire.It is the end result of the untiring work of nearly 12 Years of Mr. Antony Joseph and an enthusiastic group of workers. Absolutely everything is done by hand and no machinery or needle is used at any stage.Located by the side of North Lake Road, opposite the Boat House in Ooty, is a marvel of creation.

The constrained space did not do justice to the amount of time and labour involved in creating it. It would have been great to see the flowers in a bigger, landscaped area where people could walk about and appreciate it. Better lighting would be a big plus. Also, it would have been nice to have a variety of products at the sales counter. It would make for a great memento, though not sure how financially viable it is

Review №83

It is one of the underrated places in Ooty - showcasing flowers which are actually made up of threads and wood. The use of thread is so creatively done that one cannot distinguish it from a real flower.It is located just opposite the Ooty Lake and can be covered in 10-15 minutes (as it has just a small place). A good place to bring kids and showcase them this creativity. It is said that it is only one such unique exhibition/museum in the whole world.One thing I disliked was the separate charges for entry and photography. They should have allowed some mobile photography, to be included in the main ticket charges.

The thread garden is located near Boating point entry.It is unique in nature and may be only one in India and may be in the entire world!The Entry fee is nominal if you see the art produced before you.The garden consists of many plants and flowers and the names of them are displayed near them.All the plants and flowers there are made out of coloured threads,which is unique and beautiful too.You feel as if they are real plants and flowers.In the exit point some of the items are put for sale.The rates appear costly but for the art you are going to purchase the cost is reasonable.The visit to this garden will remain as an unforgettable memory.The visit can be clubbed with boat shire in the lake opposite,Botanical gardens and the green topped hills near by which are pleasure to watch.If you plan to go to Ooty never miss to visit this garden.I felt very happy by seeing the garden and will never forget the experience!

It is a place where the items in the display from plants to flowers, house to bridge everything is made up of thread. There will be a introduction scessions when u enter the place. Entry ticked 20 rupees for adults. Camera entry fee is 20 rupees. Its not very special when u see it from distance but at last there will be a store where we can feel them by our touch. They are made by a group of people for few months to build up this entire project in which no needle is used for preparing these items. It is very appreciable for their hard work but not a huge recomendation.

If you are in ooty you must not leave this place unattended. It is already in Limca book of records because of extensive and marvellous state of the art work. It took more than a decade to built this place. And you will Hardly miss any flora who has got missed out from its depictions. The entire garden is built using thread and the colors are as like as they exist in the nature. Minimal entry ticket and closes by 6 so make it in early hours. Just opposite boat house is there where you can enjoy boating in the serene valley.
