I
started my journey on the after enjoy in Chennai.
A former French colony , Pondicherry, the town that is a mere three-hour drive from Chennai is a popular weekend gateway in South India with many tourist attractions and must-see-places.
Some days ago only ,I and my friends went Pondicherry, youngsters called as Pondi.There are many places to visit but not as much that you can;t visit in 1 day, I am trying to say is one day is enough for Pondi.
First we had taken the bus from Chennai.Local buses are always available and go to Pondi after every 30 minutes.So you don't have to take tension of travelling to reach Pondi. Though it was a local bus then you shouldn't have to worry about the cost because it costs only 80-100 Rs or more less.After reaching Pondi we had booked a hotel which is also in resonable rate like 140 per person and with 3 people sharing room and a bathroom attached.All the things are too resonable.There are people from forign to rent their houses, to make money.As there are too many houses who rent ,though because of compition the prices of the rent became lower.
Bikes, scooky and many other options of transport are available.The petrol and other fuels are also cheap as compared to other states in India.Visiting Pondicherry is ultimate fun because doing stuff things like pranks and scare to people can be only done with your friends, these stuff you can't do with your family.The drinking things are too cheap as compared to other states except Goa.
People from all over the world visit Pondicherry.
At the beach side there is a place called a French colony ,famous after shooting of movie "Life of Pi".Many people like to visit once there ,not to see the french people ,to see the view of the beach from the colony.The best view of the beach is from the colony only.
You are allowed to roam at the beach whenever you want,there is no in time or out time to visit,As in Chennai you are allowed to be at beach side after 9:00 PM.But here is not. 24 x 7 the beach is open, so 24x7 people are there.Many tourists also sleeps at night due to hangover and also they saw the morning bright red sun, like first ray of sun is falling on you only.
Here are the all the places I visit in Pondicherry.All are the places should must visit but there are many places that I hadn't visit.There are many museums, parks and temples that you must see and visit.The park are soo green that you will forgot about forests.
Many places are outside the city only soo i will recommend you to heir a cab or take a vehicle on rent, so that it will be easy for you.Traffic is not their at the city due to maximum 2 whellers.
Use the GPS system to find out the direction , because the roads are confusing in Pondicherry.Ask to people is also a way to reach the destination and because of tourists places, everywhere you will able to find food to eat, and water to drink.

Bharathi Park:Situated close to the famous Promenade Beach , the Bharathi Park. It is surrounded by the picturesque governor building, Romen Rolland library, and the government hospital, the government park has abundant space for a leisurely stroll.
Botanical Garden:
You must visit Botanical Garden when you visit to Pondi. This garden attracted a lot of attraction after it became known that film "Life of Pie" was shot here. I have also went and filmed there.
There are monkeys to grab your food. There is toy train, aquarium and many other things for kids also. This garden is walking distance away from Pondicherry bus terminal.

Auroville
(Mantrimandir):
Its like The Lotus Temple in Agra.A silence place to gain positive energy from the surrounding by forgotting all the violence. After asking the guide there I came to know that this Mandir is equipped with the solar power plant ,so when there is no sun or after sunset the sunrays on the globe is replaced from a solar powered light.
As in Pondicherry there are many places to visits, plan as such that you are not regret afterwards about that place.
So keeping that things in mind I went to most popular place 'Les Chefs' to eat my dinner.
Its time to pack my bags and its time to enjoy the ride from Pondicherry to Kanyakumari to see that southernmost part of India and one of the best place in Tamil Nadu.
Budget:
Rs. 4000
Rs. 3000
Rs. 2000
Rs. 1000
