STORIZEN TRAVEL
One can be thrilled to
feel the blend of the
East and the West in
this exotic location.
The entire afternoon I
spent sitting on the
beach. In the evening,
I explored the silent
streets of Puducherry.
My eyes caught sight
of the French names
that were engraved in
the colonial
bungalows and on the
clean pave blocked
streets which will give
you a feel of the past
century. That evening
was wonderfully spent
as I delved into the
the French heritage
while I was exploring
those spectacular
beach and streets.
Next day, my aunt
and I were all set to
dig in the rich art of
the place. The
Aurobindo Ashram is

an acclaimed tourist
spot where I got to
see spiritually-
inclined people. It is a
tranquil place where
the abundance
knowledge from the
learned people in the
Ashram will enlighten
your soul. Not the
fluttering sounds of
feathers of birds can
be heard inside the
Ashram. I have seen
countless tourists
flocking at the
Auroville to attain
spiritual salvation. I
found a meditation
centre in the premise
of the Ashram. I
booked a ticket to see
the enchanting golden
color globe of
Matrimandir which is
a meditation centre.
My tour guide told me
that you need to have
a serene state of
mind before you
meditate inside the
Matrimandir. I saw
many tourists were
sitting in the garden
of the premise of the
Matrimandir. While
sitting in the garden
and watching the
petal globe from a
distant, I was feeling
peace inside my soul.
For the time being, I
felt detached from the
materialistic world.
In the evening, we
tasted sumptuous
meals of Puducherry.
The food joints dished
out a variety of
cuisines ranging from
Tamilian delicacies to
lip-smacking French
delicacies. I was
elated to find the
blend of the East and
the West in the
cuisines served in the
food courts.
