Auroville

A universal town where there is no god and no cash.

Auroville is not only a town, it's a community of people who believe in a cashle society, do not believe in god and there is freedom. Arriv at Chennai first and leave for Pondicherry. Get down at the Aurovill stop which is 15-20km before pondicherry.

Since I was traveling with my friend we booked a hostel at Auroville which was the best decision we made on this trip. This place gives you a home-like vibe, creative and crazy people around the country and world.

We added towards Dosai Village for lunch. It is a great place to enjoy your lunch with the beautiful nature. This property is a farm cafe surrounded by lush green farms all around and the taste is good too.

Sight Seeing

Matrimandir is a symbol of a universal mother. This sci-fi looking dome structure is an amazing creature in the middle of nowhere. On the way one can get to read more about this community and Auroville rules and aims.
