2025 Puducherry Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Kargil is a city and a joint capital of the union territory of Ladakh in India. It is also the headquarters of the Kargil district. It is the second-largest city in Ladakh after Leh. Kargil is located 204 kilometres to the east of Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir, and 234 kilometres to the west of Leh. When autumn along the way in Kargil, you will be treated to green, orange, yellow and red trees, especially right on the edge of a turquoise river. This was taken from the car only, love the red trees, the leaves and the trees are small. It's really beautiful when you see it in person. Kargil is beautiful and not as cold as Leh. The people are cute too, mostly Persian roots!. #passionpassport

Pondicherry is a small town 3-4 hours bus ride from Chennai. It is really vibrant, lively and clean town. we walked around in white town which people also call French colony because all the buildings there are inspired by French culture. And you will find beach les within walking distance from anywhere which is just so wonderful. But be careful about swimming there as it is really unguarded and there are no coast guards there. And it is really not recommended to swim there. There are street vendors everywhere selling candies and fruits and beach clothes.. The streets are really great for photography too.. #pondicherry #puducherry #india #travel #travel

There are quite some reasons why a particular country make a colony at a foreign land; and to put that into perspective maybe Paradise beach 🏝 also an island is the reason why the French had Pondicherry for themselves. Situated some 8 kms away from the downtown of the city, you can reach here only by boat ⛵ from Chunnambar boat house (literally limestone 🪨river boat house). The island has quite a lot of almost everything you need, and that you would expect in a beach. They've got some cool water sports 🏄🪂that can make your adrenaline go high. Or put it out in a calm relaxed way that settles down your adrenaline. You make the call, and have a great time in this small piece of land in the middle of water !! I would highly recommend to try the local fish 🐠 fry, a totally mind-blowing dish that you can try only here. #indiatravel #pondicherry #summervacation#beachvacation

Although technically a town, Pondicherry is pretty large and can easily be considered one of the top cities in India to visit if you want to explore the French legacy in India. Once here, make sure to visit the French Quarter, which is almost like stepping back in time. It’s so surreal to see. Pondicherry also has a heap of religious sites you should visit, such as the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
