Burliar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burliar (Tamil: பர்லியர்) is a Panchayat village in Coonoor Taluk of the The Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu, India.
It is situated on National Highway 67 between Mettupalayam and Coonoor on the Coonoor Ghat Road. It is also on the border between Coimbatore District and The Nilgiris District. A toll must be paid here for vehicles entering the The Nilgiris District.
Burliar is best known as a rest stop on this Ghat Road. Most people are employed in the running of small shops and restaurants that cater to the needs of travellers. When the road has been closed (for example due to landslips), many of the villagers leave and seek other employment elsewhere.
