Tamil Nadu Tourism Development Corporation Ltd
will soon launch 10 special tour packages in an attempt to give tourists visiting Tamil Nadu a chance to experience religious architecture and soak in the divine fervour at Hindu religious sites in the State.
Carrying forward the idea of launching a one-day tour to all the important temples in the State as announced by the Tamil Nadu Tourism Minister, Ms Gokula Indira, in the State Assembly last year, TTDCL has come up with  special packages that includes visits to notable religious sites in the State.
              The packages include a tour to nine Nagarathar temples in Sivaganga district — Illaiyathangudi, Illupaikudi, Iranikoil, Mathur, Nemam, Pillaiyarpatti, Soorakudi, Vairavankovil, and Velangudi temples near Karaikudi.
Another tour includes a visit to the Divya Desam temples in Kancheepuram and Thiruvallur districts and a tour to the Thirukkadaiyur temple in Nagapattinam district.
             TTDCL also has tours to the Yelagiri Hills and Kolli Hills for those interested in hiking and trekking.
Another tour package is organised around places of importance in the nation’s freedom struggle. Named the ‘Freedom Fighters’ Circuit Tour,’ it takes tourists around places associated with the freedom struggle and memorials and birthplaces of freedom fighters from the State.
