The French Quarter
Pondicherry's White Town is a slice of 18th-century France on the Coromandel coast. The mustard-yellow walls and bougainvillea-draped villas now house some of India's most exquisite boutique hotels.
Staying in a restored heritage mansion offers an unparalleled immersion into the region's unique Franco-Tamil history.
