Map |
Tamilnadu is bounded by Karnataka and
Andhra Pradesh in the north and Kerala in the west. The eastern and western
tips of the Tamilnadu are defined by the Point Calimere and Mudumalai
wildlife sanctuaries while the northern extreme is Pulicat lake and the
southernmost tip is Kanyakumari, the land's end. Tamil Nadu is principally
washed by the Cauvery, originating in Coorg in neighbouring Karnataka.
Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu is known for its beautiful beach resorts.
Tamil Nadu is the ultimate destination. It has everything to offer from
temple architecture; rock cut edicts, lush green hills and tea slopes at
Kodaikanal, Ooty and Coonoor ; flora and fauna at the game sanctuaries in
Vedanthangal and Mudumalai; the sound of ankle bells of the Bharat Natyam,
the classical dance with 108 postures and the Mahabalipuram beach near
Madras. |
