    Hi

    can somebody help with a good weekend getaway from chennai. My husband and i would just like to relax and laze around for a couple of days to destress before getting back to our hectic lives.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Hi Chennaiwoman
    you can go to Yelagiri which is 180 km from chennai near Vellore. Its a hill and beautiful place to spend couple of days there. You have lots of resorts and hotels to stay.

    Another ideal weekend get-away is Pondicherry. The French culture, architecture and cuisine, the corniche, Aurobindo Ashram, Matri Mandir....put together gives you a serene calmness. A complete contrast from your day to day life in Chennai. It is also not very crowded, so you can afford to take a nice, lazy walk along the corniche and streets of the old French city.

    Check the link below. Am sure you will have more options to choose from...

    Hi

    I too agree. Its a nice place with less polution and population and we can peacefully enjoy the beauty of nature.
