VISALAM, CHETTINAD

 

                                   

 

 

A 70-year-old traditional home is Visalam in Chettinad, Tamil Nadu. Like the land in which it is located, namely Kanadukathan or the one who protects the environment, Visalam today protects Chettinad’s rich culture and tradition, its architecture and music, its cuisine and way of life. Built by a father for his daughter, Visalakshi, the home is in many ways, living, breathing history, keeping alive the ethos of a rich culture, as it existed 70 years ago. While its spaciousness is a reminder of the celebrated Chettinad hospitality – where even a casual caller to the home was welcomed with open arms and served food – the high ceilings and the open-to-sky courtyards are a tribute to the craftsmanship of yore as well as a study in how human dwellings can be in harmony with nature. All of which make Visalam a journey, which, like a typical Chettinad home, leads one inward, to touch the core, the heart of the land. 

 

Accommodation: 15 Standard rooms of quiet elegance, of which six are twin rooms. All rooms air-conditioned and 400 to 600 sq.ft in area.

MAISON PERUMAL, PONDICHERRY

 

                                   

 

 

Celebrating the ethos of a French colony of the 18th century and breathing the life of the community around is Maison Perumal in Pondicherry. A quaint mix of French and Tamil cultures, Pondicherry is where French style villas and traditional Tamil homes exist side by side. And French is spoken as widely as Tamil. In fact, the entire town is divided into two sections, the French Quarter with typically colonial buildings, and the Indian or Tamil Quarter with houses lined with verandas, large doors and grills. True to its name, Maison Perumal located on Perumal Koil Street in the Tamil Quarter of Pondicherry is an amalgamation of French and Tamil cultures. Untouched by time, Maison Perumal resounds the spirit of another era.
