South India
Introduction
South India attracts tourists from all over the world, as some of its destinations, such as Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Pondicherry, and Andhra Pradesh, offer distinctly different attractions for travelers. Here in South India, you’ll find not only some of the finest architectural gems in the form of temples like the Meenakshi Temple in Madurai, the temples of Mahabalipuram and Kanchipuram in Tamil Nadu, or the Ashram of Saint Aurobindo in Pondicherry.
In Kerala, you’ll find architectural brilliance at the Padmanabhan Swami Guruvayurappan Temple. Along with the temples, some of the best beaches in South India include Kovalam and Marari, where you can relax after traveling and exploring Tamil Nadu and Kerala.....
