Begin your honeymoon exploring the charming French Quarter of Puducherry. Stroll along the Promenade Beach, a scenic stretch of sand perfect for a romantic walk. Enjoy the colorful buildings and take a lot of pictures in White Town, known for its Indo-French architecture. Continue your walk to Aurobindo Ashram, a spiritual community founded in the early 20th century, to experience calmness and peace. End your day at the iconic Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a beautiful church built-in 1908, with stunning stained glass windows, gothic architecture and peaceful surroundings.
Start your day by visiting the Arikamedu archaeological site, one of the most important excavations in the country, revealing the ancient Roman trading location. Then, visit the iconic Nallathur Palace, which boasts of a rich history and showcases traditional south Indian architectural style. Followed by a visit to the Manakula Vinayagar Temple, a beautiful Hindu temple known for its grand elephant statue. Finally, end your day with some shopping at the famous Goubert Market, where you can get anything from fresh produces to handicrafts to souvenirs for your loved ones.
If you have extra time, visit the famous Promenade for sunrise or sunset, or take a day trip to the picturesque Paradise Beach, which is about 12 km away from the French Quarter. However, if you have less time, eliminate the Arikamedu archaeological site and Nallathur Palace. Ensure that you carry adequate water and protect yourself from the sun while walking outside. Also, make sure to try your hand at French and South Indian cuisine in the local cafes and restaurants along the way!
