Are you going to stay at one place and shuttle between that place and other areas OR
roaming all over TN and nearby areas ?
Do you have any special interests for places ( like pancha bootha shiva temples, vaishnava divya desams, muruga's arupadai veedu etc. ) ? If so you can plan accordingly.
how many days and whats ur main interest ? adhai sollunga..

எங்க ஊரு போயி சந்தோஷமா பாருங்க.
Tanjore /தஞ்சாவூர் /தஞ்சை is a very historic place.
பெரிய கோவில், அரண்மனை தவிர
couple of அம்மன்/அம்பாள் கோவில்கள் , people visit.
ஸ்ரீ.பங்காரு காமாக்ஷி at மேல வீதி, தஞ்சாவூர் .
தஞ்சாவூர் புன்னைநல்லூர் மாரியம்மன் & வலங்கைமான் மாரியம்மன் கோவில்கள் ரொம்ப புகழ் பெற்றவை.
வலங்கைமான் ஸ்ரீ தளாதேவி அம்மை நோயை தீர்க்கும் ஷக்தி மிக்கவள் என்று கூறுவார்கள்.
கும்பக்கோணம் & திருச்சி பக்கத்துல இருக்கு.
கும்பக்கோணம் மகாமகக் குளம் very famous .
சிவன் temples to visit in the city .
சோமேஷ்வர் சுவாமி,கும்பேஸ்வரன் கோவில்,நாகேஸ்வர சுவாமி - ராஜ கோபுரம்.
கும்பக்கோணம் பக்கத்துல திருப்புறம்பியம் வெள்ளை விநாயகர் புகழ் வாய்ந்தது.
beautiful பட்டீஸ்வரம் துர்க்கை , everybody should enjoy .
கும்பக்கோணம் அடுத்து சுவாமி மலை பக்கத்துல திருவலஞ்சுழி விநாயகர்.
அப்படியே மாயவரம் side போனீங்கன்னா.
வைதீஸ்வரன் கோவில் நவக்ரஹ ஸ்தலம் - அங்காரகன்
சீர்காழி பக்கத்துல திருவெண்காடு - புதன் .
கும்பக்கோணம் - காரைக்கால் பக்கத்துல திருநள்ளாறு - சனி
திருநாகேஸ்வரம் is closer to கும்பக்கோணம் ராகு ஸ்தலம்.

1. Everything in TN is rich with history, especially on religion. TN is basically the best place for a pilgrimage and of course to discover your roots. So come prepared with a camera and a video camera. It would help if you google the places you wish to visit beforehand so that you would know what to expect and marvel at.
2. Outside Chennai there are hardly any 5-star hotels. This is Asia you are talking about. What you can do is tell your agent to book you clean and good hotels - and inspect the rooms before you check in.
Five star hotels in Chennai would include Le Royal Meridien, Taj Coromandel, The Park, Fishermans Cove, Radisson, Taj Connemara, Trident Hilton, etc.
3. Watch the movie Thirumalai Thenkumari. Anyway, your itinerary will depend on the number of days you spend in India. See my next post for some suggestions.
4. TN is a heaven for vegetarian food. You can visit any restaurants and as long as it is air conditioned, you can be assured of hygiene. In order not to take risks, restrict your drinks to bottled water - ensure the cap is sealed. Refrain from any liquid that is not boiled including ice cubes.
5. Every temple is not just a temple, but also a shopping complex. Wear your biggest smile and start the bargaining session. Try not to bargain with the small time shops - be generous.
Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!

What you need is
1. Good attitude with an open mind
2. Celebrate people and their practices
3. Treat everything as a learning experience
4. Enjoy every moment - laugh off obstacles
5. Be positive and generous in thoughts and action
