Holidays in Chidambaram

Chidambaram is a place that has plenty of cool stories to tell. If you think your life's been a bit humdrum lately, a trip here is the perfect answer!

It's located 1,950 kilometres to the south of New Delhi, the national capital of India.

Nothing comes close to enjoying a sunrise by the ocean. While you're here, be sure to travel to Velankanni Beach, 80 kilometres to the south.

Those who are always looking to learn more about religion and spirituality will be happy here. Lose yourself in the serene atmosphere at the Sabhanayaka Nataraja Temple and the Tiruvetkalam Temple.

You'll find even more just around the corner. Kovilampoondi, 4 kilometres to the northeast, is known for the Annamalai University and the Chitti Vinayagar Temple. Though, if Town Gateway and Danish Governor Bungalow are more your thing, head 30 kilometres south from Chidambaram to Anandathandavapuram.

Spend some time wandering around the Airavateshwara Temple, the Sarangapani Temple and the Shiva temple of Darasuramis. These attractions are all not too far from the middle of Kumbakonam, 60 kilometres away. Have more time? The Chakrapani Temple and the Sani Bhagawan Temple should also be on your itinerary.

You won't have to bring that heavy guidebook if you sign up for a few wildlife spotting tours and city walking tours. Your gracious tour guide can give you the most dependable local knowledge there is!

Visualise yourself with wings as you soar through the air. Thrill-seekers can get their kicks by going paragliding.

Sure, it's wonderful to be close to the water, but it's so much more fun to be on or in it! Make the most of the chance to try the region's wonderful watersports, such as wind surfing and surfing.

You're bound to come across loads of interesting things squashed into the region's history museums and palaces.

Keeping your eyes peeled for something outdoors that will please the whole family? The surrounding area boasts some fantastic open-air markets.

If you'd love to learn something new about the region's history, plan an excursion to the nearby fortresses and historic palaces. Grab a map, do some research and visit some of the most popular ones.

Whether or not you follow a faith, stopping by one of the surrounding temples is a great opportunity to learn about the area's spiritual leanings.

To truly experience a destination is to immerse yourself in the local food and drink, so get ready to chomp, chew, slurp and sip your way around Tamil Nadu. The only thing you need to bring with you is a hearty appetite!

A meal here often includes lentils and spices, two regularly used ingredients for which the local region is famous for plating up.

Don't miss the opportunity to dig into masala dosa (thin crepe with dips) or sambar (lentil and vegetable stew). These much-loved meals are what Tamil Nadu is all about.

Shahi tukda (bread pudding) is a dessert that summarises this place in just one mouthful. Order up a serving and then get another one to go!

Want to join in on all the Republic Day celebrations? Put the 26th of January in your diary and get ready to party!

From Chidambaram, it's 180 kilometres north to Chennai International Airport (MAA). This is the nearest airport. Make sure you give yourself a little extra time to make your way there so you don't miss your flight back home.
