Visit Puducherry Ahead of the Festival:
On weekends, tourists from Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu visit Puducherry, according to the minister, who also stated that the government is considering making the Union Territory a tourism attraction during the week, reported IANS.
This former French colony is a romantic getaway that combines traditional Indian sensibilities with French design, making it the best of both worlds. The walkways of Pondicherry’s French Quarter, also known as White Town, are lined with lovely mustard-yellow colonial houses draped in bougainvillea.
The Union Territory of Pondicherry, with its beautiful coastline, is a great place for beachgoers to enjoy a variety of water activities. The colonial architecture complements the beach life, while Auroville, which is located far away, adds a new element to Pondicherry tourists.
What are you waiting for? Head to Pondy to enjoy the host of activities planned for you.
