💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget hotels near the railway station (₹800-1500/night) and use local auto-rickshaws (₹30-50 per ride) instead of taxis; buy silk sarees directly from weavers' homes to save 30-40% compared to tourist shops.
📅 October to February is ideal when temperatures range from 20-28°C, making temple visits and silk weaving workshops comfortable. Avoid May-June when heat peaks at 40°C and July-September brings heavy monsoons that disrupt temple activities.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa or documentation to visit Kanchipuram as it is a domestic destination within India. Simply carry a valid ID like Aadhaar or passport for internal travel.
