South India is brimming with tropicalism: the coconut palms overlooking the backwaters of Kerala , the spice villages of Periyar, the tea plantations of Munnar or beaches where you can perform the Sun Salutation during a yoga retreat. However, states like Tamil Nadu offer another vision of the history of India through different monumental complexes that are ideal for exploring the remains of this civilization. The temples of Madurai evoke colors that you didn’t even know existed; in Mahaballipuram you will find monolithic complexes such as The Descent of the Ganges; and in Pondicherry you can tour the colonial streets of this old French city by bicycle.
