Weekend Gateway To Pondicherry (Puducherry)

Hii Guys,,,

Hope you all are doing well.

Sorry for being away since last so many days. The reason I was away was that I was on a trip to Pondicherry and after returning from there had so many pending works that it took long time to recover from that.

So today instead of doing a review or haul video, I thought of sharing my Pondicherry experience with you guys, so that it can be useful to you guys who are planning to visit there anytime soon.

Hope you guys will like it. So let’s start.

It was Thursday evening that we all friends decided to visit Pondicherry for weekend. Since Friday was a working day we had very little amount to prepare well. Still we tried our best and we were all set to leave for Pondicherry by Friday evening.

We had out train from YPR railway station, Bangalore around 9’o clock and we reached Pondicherry around 7’o clock in the morning.

After reaching their first thing that we did was searching for a hotel. We were lucky enough to get a good hotel nearby railway station. So without wasting time, we checked in the hotel, got freshen up and left for our first spot, i.e- Paradise Beach.

Paradise beach is the most beautiful beach of Pondicherry. To reach there we took a boat from its backwaters. It costed us around 200rs per person. It took around 15-20 mins to reach paradise beach. 

It is a beautiful beach with good services, like changing rooms,, washrooms,, restaurants etc. You also have lots of water activity options there like banana rides etc.

We stayed there for 4-5 hours, had super fun in the sea, had our lunch and returned from there back to our hotel. After reaching our respective rooms, we got freshen up and took rest for some time. Then we got ready and left for our 2^nd spot, i.e- Rock Beach.

Rock beach is just like marina beach in Mumbai, where you have big rocks beside the sea and you can sit there and have a peaceful time. There you can also enjoy street food and street shopping. We stayed there for like 3-4 hours. Did some shopping, ate street foods which was enough for dinner. And then we returned back to our hotel. After having some chatting and UNO sessions we slept.

Next day, after our breakfast we left for our 3^rd spot, i.e- Auro Beach.

Auro Beach is an open beach which is free for all. This is also a very beautiful beach where the waves are very high. You don’t have any eateries here. Nearby there is a hotel, where you have an option to pay and use washrooms for changing or bathing.

We stayed in this beach for around 3-4 hours. After that we all went to that nearby hotel, got freshen up and then left for our hotel. On the way we had our lunch in a restaurant near to Auro beach.

After that we went for shopping. There was a street which had many roadside sellers selling different types of outfits for womens. They had huge collection and in very cheap price. We luved shopping from there.  That was out last spot. After that we packed our bags and left for station. We had our train around 8’o clock which brought us back to Bangalore around 5’30 AM.

That was all about my trip to Pondicherry. It was an amazing trip where we had superb fun and enjoyed a lot.

Coming to some of the cons of this trip:

      

      1)      The worst thing about this trip was that we all are badly affected by sun tanning. Since its very hot there and both days we were wearing shorts in beach, our whole body has got tanned.

      2)      It’s too hot and humid there, so this was not the right time to go there.

      3)      If you don’t like eating south indian foods, eating can be tough there.

Other than this, it was a superb trip which I will always cherish forever.

Hope you guys liked my experience. Do share about your experiences too.

Thanks.
