💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget guesthouses near Kamakshi Amman Temple (₹400-800/night) instead of Chennai hotels, and eat at local temple canteens offering authentic South Indian meals for ₹80-150 per plate.
📅 October to February offers pleasant weather with temperatures between 20-30°C, ideal for temple visits and exploring the town on foot. Avoid May-September due to intense heat and monsoons that can disrupt travel and temple access.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa or travel documents to visit Kanchi as it is located within India. Simply carry a valid Indian ID proof like Aadhaar, PAN, or passport for domestic travel.
