Top 9 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Pondicherry, Union Territory of Pondicherry
Pondicherry’s bougainvilleas, crumbling cathedrals and leafy boulevards might occasionally make you wonder if you’re in the south of France instead of a former French colony. But it's also unmistakably Indian, with colorful festivals, the famous monument of Aayi Mandapam, and the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. Quiet beaches stretch north and south from town, good for swimming and sunrise strolls.

This is the place which lists down what all restorations have been done in and around Pondicherry. In a way it takes us back to olden times and shows what Pondicherry really was - a quiet sea side holiday town, long before the excellent connectivity with neighbouring cities transformed it into a weekend holiday destination. The place helps us connect the past of Pondicherry with the present.

An old and famous Lord Siva Temple in Pondicherry. The Lord is worshipped in the form of Lingam. The paintings inside the temple is a treat. There is a pond on the back side of the temple. The other dieties include Vinayaka, Durga, Sani, Navagraha etc. Housed in a massive area, and near to Varadaraja Perumal Temple, it is a must worship place for those who are visiting Pondicherry.

The beach road view is awesome, it turns its color and provide a unique experience at different times of the day. The early morning walk gives a splendid view of Sunrise, the day time view gives a beautiful glimpse of the French Architecture and the late evening walk gives a fresh, calm mood and beautiful night life view.
