Dearjkends and well-wishers, Discover Chennai completes another year with you and we couldn't be more happier to bring you this festive issue. On cover, we look at the tradition of Tamil golu and let the dolls tell their silent story. And of course, what's a South Indian festival without the mandatory rangoli - the magic of dots, forms and the science behind it? As for sweets, well, why not go for more than laddus and jalebis and try some Arabian fare this time. Traditional or not, yum is the verdict. And want to do more for your holidays? Why not go back in time. Yes, just 3 hours away from Chennai, Pondy could be your best bet to time-travel. Walk it, cycle or iust sit back and soak in the hues of yestewear k all its glory in pristine ~uduch&ry.k t issue, we have more trails to unearth, more secrets to unravel, until then Discover Chennai at your pace.

Cheers!

Serniya Payasam is a staple dessert in festive celebrations across South India. What if you could slurp up its Arabian version? This festive season, Indiska Magic brings to town Arabian delights like chocolate marzaban dates, caramelised almond figs and Kunafa. Kunafa - this simple Arabic Dessert is made of Kataifi, which is a thin strand of shredded phyllo dough. It looks very similar to Indian Verrnicilli or Seviyan. Originally served during the month of Ramadan (while fasting). It is said that dish was created to help princes who had a tough time while fasting. It is said that royal family would feast on it before dawn to fast the entire day without struggle. As for us, if the laddus aren't enough, let's give Diwali an Arabian twist!

10 Must-visit vlaces in Bharathi Park This park right in the centre of the city is known for its lush greenery and pristine white Aayi mandap (a tribute to lady courtesan Aayi for her benevolence). Take a leisurely stroll here. God's own From the blissful Manakular Vinayagar with its glorious temple elephant to French masses at Our Lady of Angels church near the beach, this little town is filled with ancient churches and temples. White town The area around the Pondicherry rock beach is known for its beautiful mix of French and Tamil architecture. Walk down this zone or take one of Pondy's famous cycle tours and soak in the rich heritage of the former French colony. Auroville & Aurobindo Ashram Auroville is an experimental town that promotes universal peace. You can see many foreigners coming here to seek the higher truth. It's a great place to volunteer for green practices like forestation, water conservation etc. One can also choose to meditate at the Aurobindo Ashram or inside the Auroville dome. Arikamedu This archaeological site will take you to the times when ancient Romans traded with India. .

hducherry I October 2011

Pichavaram Pichavaram mangrove forest, the third largest in the world is 57 kms from Pondicherry, a boat ride here will leave you mesmerised. It's a bird watcher's paradise. Gingee fort Known as the Troy of the East, this fort built by the Nayaks in the 16thcentury is located atop three hillocks. This site is located 77 Krns from Pondicherry and is a must-visit for history buffs. Beach The famous rock aka Promenade beach along with its Gandhi statue is known for the beautifully maintained lanes. Though swimming is restricted, a mere walk here will rejuvenate your spirits and is a safe place to stroll even in the nights. Chunnambar and Mudhaliarkuppam While the Chunnambar boating zone is known for the Paradise island where one can gain access via boats; Mudhiliarkuppam is for the adventure-seekers, you have amazing water rides even for non-swimmers. Artefacts aplenty Pondicherry is also a shopping paradise - from colonial artefacts, aromatic candles to pottery, make sure you make the best of your stay here. Check out Geetanjali for artefacts, Kalki for home fragrance or visit one of the many pottery shops in Auroville.

A blast from the past 3 Must-ty experiences for going back

in time in Picturesque Puduchery:

DC I Puducherry I October 2016 1 PG 05

Pondy's Tamil and French quarters are separated by the Grand Canal, running north to south across the town. The French quarters, also called the White Town, houses a number of age-old colonial villas, which have been restored and reformed into appealing heritage hotels. For instance, you could stay in the exquisite Hotel de l'orient, located in a meticulously-restored 18th-century French building close to Pondicherry's sea-facing promenade. Just sit back, spend a lazy evening in the courtyard enjoying , . - the cross-over cultural performances, and indulge - in some FrancoTamil-Creole cuisine later in the Carte

ique signature.
