Holidays in Papasanam

When your boss is on your back cos you've chucked too many sickies, it's time to break free from the corporate cubicle and say hello to Papasanam!

The nation's capital city, New Delhi, can be found around 2,000 kilometres to the north of Papasanam.

Does a sunset by the ocean sound good to you? Pay a visit to Velankanni Beach, 70 kilometres to the east.

Whatever your faith, you're sure to find yourself enchanted by the soothing and calm atmosphere of the Palaivananathar Temple.

You'll find even more just down the road. Swamimalai, 7 kilometres to the east, is known for the Swaminatha Temple and the Airavateshwara Temple. Alternatively, if the Sarangapani Temple and the Shiva temple of Darasuramis sound better to you, head 13 kilometres east from Papasanam to Kumbakonam.

Heading to Tiruchirappalli? This place is only 65 kilometres to the west. If you're setting up base here, make sure you check out Rock Fort, Our Lady's Cathedral and Chettinad. Also consider stopping by St John's Church and the Vekkaliamman Temple.

Let someone else take care of the details and get social with your fellow travellers on wildlife spotting tours and city walking tours.

Take your getaway to amazing new heights by going paragliding. You'll almost be able to reach the clouds as you glide across the sky like a bird.

Whether you prefer to be in, around or on it, everybody loves the water! Why not add some excitement to your holiday by going wind surfing and surfing?

It's impossible to say just what you'll discover behind the doors of the region's history museums and palaces, but you can be sure it'll be enthralling!

Refresh your mind with some fun-filled outdoor attractions. The surrounding area features a wide variety of open-air markets.

If you'd love to learn more about the area's background, drop by the nearby fortresses and historic palaces. Get out your map, do some research and see the best of them.

Want to add some deeper meaning to your travels? Whether you're seeking a spiritual experience or simply interested in learning about the local belief system, spend some time at some of the surrounding temples.

Clothing? Check. Passport? Check. But have you packed your appetite? With some fine food and drink to sample around here, it's the one thing you won't want to leave home without.

If you're leafing through a menu, there's every chance you'll come across dishes with lentils or spices. They're just some ingredients which are often used in the kitchens here.

When Papasanam locals talk about their food, you'll probably hear masala dosa (thin crepe with dips) or sambar (lentil and vegetable stew) mentioned once or twice. These signature meals are an important part of the region and ought to be on any food lover's list.

'Stressed' spelled backwards is 'desserts', and we don't believe in coincidences. There's no more delicious way to wave goodbye to your worries than with shahi tukda (bread pudding), a sweet treat often found on dinner tables here.

What better way to immerse yourself in a place than by joining in on a day of national celebration? There'll be many festivities occurring for Republic Day on the 26th of January.

When you're ready to fly back home, give yourself extra time to head to Chennai International Airport (MAA). Sitting 250 kilometres to the northeast from the middle of Papasanam, this is the nearest terminal.
