Visit to Auroville and Pondicherry with lunch

 
 
0900 Hrs

 

Depart from The Temple Bay for full day visit to Chennai. In this tour we will be visiting the following places.

On the eastern side of Indian peninsula, Pondicherry is a seaside resort. But at the same time it differs very much from a typical beach resort. Tourist attractions in Pondicherry lie in its ambience.

Old French style buildings, churches and museums, tree-lined boulevards along the seashore would remind you of a bygone era. The laidback township, pristine beach and the palm trees swaying in breeze bring a slice of serenity. The only sound you can hear is the waves crashing against the rocks and the chirping of the birds.

But to cap it all, we will take you to Auroville Ashram is the biggest of all tourist attractions in Pondicherry. Just because of it, the destination of Pondicherry exudes a spiritual aura. For the weary soul, this is an ideal retreat. Any evening head for the Ashram, meditate, soothe the battered psyche.

 
 
   
Shri Aurobindo Ashram

 

Shri Aurobindo, the great seer, poet and prophet of the twentieth century, made Pondicherry his home from 1910 till his death in 1950. His vision and ideals continue to draw people from all over the world.
 
 
   
Pondicherry Museum

 

On display are the findings of Arikamedu, the Chola bronzes and sculptures, glimpses of French heritage, specimens of modern and traditional handicraft, paintings, armouries, carvings and many other things of historical interest.
 
 
   

If time permits we will take you to The French War Memorial, the Aayi Mandapam, a 19th Century Lighthouse which are other tourist attractions in Pondicherry. The old Parisian churches would draw you attention due to their architectural beauty.

Activity is not the highlight of a Pondicherry tour. Come here to roam about, feel the spirit and be charmed. Leave Pondicherry by 1600 hrs. Return back to the hotel Great Temple Bay by 1730 hrs.
