This small city known for its hospitality, food, people and beaches.
Me and my friends went over there several times becasue its only 2 hours cab ride from our college srm university chennai.
Its also only approx 3 hours cab ride from chennai international airport and 4 hours from chennai central railway station.
I would highly recommend this place to everyone loking for a great holiday experience.
Rock beach, paradise beach, french towns , temples and churches and aurobindo ashram are must visit place.
There is more than 20 bautifull beaches in pondi only which makes this city more brightfull and popular.
There are several beautifull and affortable hotels overthere and they gave us the best quality of food as well .
Some people thaught that its a part of south india so we could not get north indian, west indian foods overthere but they are totally wrong.
Restaurants like rendez, lea chateau serve us good quality north indian foods.
There are some french museums located overthere.
This city is also very secure and safe.the police and other sequrity incharges are active in whole city and on the beaches also.
And the best part is that services in this city is not very expensive as goa.
From my point of view it is the most affordable and enjoyable holiday deatination in india.
