Workation in Pondicherry: the essentials

France held Pondicherry until the 1950s, and the White Town still has French street names, mustard-coloured villas and a seafront promenade along the Bay of Bengal. Across the canal, the Tamil quarter is busier. Officially Puducherry, the city is the capital of a small Union Territory, bordered on land by Tamil Nadu. The Sri Aurobindo Ashram and Auroville, just to the north, have drawn an international community for decades, and there is some coworking. The town shore is lined with rocks, so swimmers head to beaches further north. April to June is very hot. Pondicherry Airport, about 6 km away, has few flights and most people arrive via Chennai.
