There are multiple things to do in Pondicherry and among them visiting the Ananda Ranga Pillai should be one of them. This place is a portal to the colonial past that gives us a unique insight into the life and times of Ananda Ranga Pillai, India’s most important French administrative figure.
A visit to his residence offers a real connection to the century. A fascinating Pondicherry, his careful diary, which is still considered, is among the most valuable records of the period.
The atmosphere of the building intensifies as soon as you walk inside. Wide verandahs, polished beams, and high ceilings all recall a time when attention to detail was valued and craftsmanship was considered an art. This home almost feels like stepping back in time to a century of the seventeenth, with a mixture of French beauty and Indian warmth. Every element of space and architecture evokes memories of the past, inviting you to explore history in a beautiful and engaging way.
