Meghamalai's history is intertwined with the cultivation of tea and spices. During the British colonial era, the region was developed as a plantation area, with tea, coffee, and cardamom being the primary crops. The British established estates and infrastructure to support the cultivation and processing of these commodities. Post-independence, the plantations continued to thrive, contributing significantly to the local economy. While the area has seen some development, it has largely retained its natural beauty and charm. Today, Meghamalai is gradually gaining recognition as a tourist destination, attracting visitors who appreciate its pristine environment and tranquil atmosphere. The local communities have also started to benefit from tourism, with homestays and eco-tourism initiatives gaining popularity.
