I have visited Tranquebar several time as my native is in Tranquebar taluk in Nagappatinam Dist. I also done my PG in TBML College Porayar. But the ancient monument lags basic amenities. Govt has to take care of it. The train route from mayiladuthurai to tranquebar should be reconstruted and linked with karaikal.R.M.Samy
The article on Goa is incomplete since it has not covered the calangote beach, the golden sand beach. There are cottages of Goa Tourism along side the beach. Stay there and listen to the music created by the waves hitting the shore in late evening without lights. The sound is so soothing, you will forget all tensions. Important: Do not take any ligour when you are doing it. You will sleep off without enjoying the sounds of the waves
Superb short writeup of so many adventurious and unheard places. I am eager to go the day I get some vacation time. I am saving this article as a reference for these places. Thanks Anita & Rediff for sharing this info. :)
