We know you’re eager to test out these new wheels of yours. How about heading out on a day trip to Kumbakonam? Just 20 miles away, roll down your windows and enjoy the wind in your hair on the way there. Among the first stops you make here should be Brahma Temple, Sarangapani Temple and Sani Bhagawan Temple. Locals will also probably point you in the direction of Thanjavur, 25 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Thanjur Brihadishwara Temple. (But we’d also highly recommend Maratha Palace and Thanjavur Royal Palace and Art Gallery.)
