In Mahābalipuram, during your January Ashtanga Yoga session, you have two ways to experience Pongal — one of the most colourful festivals of South India, full of colour and music.
With the Tourism Office
The Tourism Office arranges, each year, a visit to a traditional village a few kilometres from Mahābalipuram: songs, dances, pūjā…
With a family, at Arul’s
If you would rather live the event within an Indian family, our friend Arul, in a small village 4 km from Mahābalipuram, invites participants to share the pūjā ceremony and the typical Pongal meal.
