Route : Delhi-Chennai-Mamallapuram-Pondicherry-Chennai-Delhi
Mamallapuram (Mahabalipuram) is an ancient city which is famous for its shore temples (UNESCO Heritage). These monolithic rock structures are renowned for their distinctive architecture style & extraordinary carvings. These enchanting ancient temples, embedded in the golden brown sand of the shore, against the backdrop of the azure sea and surrounding serenity are a treat for history enthusiasts.
Pondicherry is a former French colony which has retained its colonial heritage beautifully. Tamil culture and French influence blend unusually in this small town which remained under French rule for about 300 years.
