Hotels in Tamil Nadu, India

Tamil Nadu, on India's southeastern coast, has a tropical climate with mild winters (70°F/21°C) from November to February and hot summers (95°F/35°C) from April to June. Winter is the best time to explore the intricately carved Meenakshi Temple in Madurai or watch the sunrise at Kanyakumari where the Indian Ocean meets the Bay of Bengal. Summer gets you up to the hill station of Ooty for tea plantation hikes, or to Mahabalipuram's ancient rock-cut temples along the Bay of Bengal coast.
