Top places to visit in Pondicherry
French Quarter
Pondicherry's charming French Quarter, a captivating destination that takes you on an amazing journey back in time. This captivating "White Town," or Ville Blanche as locals often refer to it, stands as an irresistibly charming reminder of Puducherry's rich colonial heritage, where its distinctive blend of French and Indian architecture creates an incredible ambiance.
Auroville
It founded in 1968 by Mirra Alfassa, a disciple of Aurobindo and fondly known as the 'Mother' of Sri Aurobindo Society. This place is the epitome of tranquility and proves as the perfect escape for the ones in search of peace. The best way to experience Auroville ashram is to actually just sit in one of the cafes, and talk to residents here about their experience of living in the city.
Aurobindo Ashram
Visit the Sri Aurobindo Ashram, founded in 1926 by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, Mirra Alfassa. At its heart lies the serene white-marble Samadhi, where both are laid to rest. The ashram remains Pondicherry’s spiritual centre, offering a peaceful insight into Integral Yoga and contemplative life.
"For a more atmospheric Pondicherry experience, explore the French Quarter early in the morning, when its tree-lined streets and pastel colonial villas are at their quietest. Continue to the seaside promenade for a leisurely walk, then pause at a local café for excellent South Indian coffee and a light breakfast."
