Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India

Coimbatore lies on the banks of the river Noyyal in the shadow of the Western Ghats. It enjoys a pleasant climate all round the year and looks distinctly different from the other cities in Tamil Nadu. The views of the hills and the river create an ecstatic feeling. Coimbatore is the textile capital of South India and is known as the Manchester of the East. The cotton crop that grows in the fertile black soil of this region helped in establishing the textiles industry as far back as 1888. It is a leading industrial city, renowned for the manufacturing of various engineering and electronic goods. 

Coimbatore is well connected by air. Coimbatore is also very well connected to Chennai and many other important cities by train. The city is also well serviced by the Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation buses and those of the Kerala State and Karnataka State Road Corporations and other private bus operators.
