Heritage & Temples
Explore Hampi's ruins, Mahabalipuram's shore monuments and the Chola temples, all recognised as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
UNESCO monuments, living temples and old churches
These tours include UNESCO World Heritage properties: the monuments at Hampi and Mahabalipuram, the Great Living Chola Temples and the Churches and Convents of Goa. Hampi holds the ruins of the Vijayanagara capital, built between the 14th and 16th centuries.
At Tirumala, the temple board asks men to wear a dhoti or pyjama with a shawl, and women a saree or half-saree with blouse, or a churidar with an upper cloth.
