Once in a while, it’s important to get out of the city and experience something new. And while driving to Mahabalipuram doesn’t really count as doing something new, it’s still an experience that cannot be missed. A drive to the beach, taking in what is really out there instead of living the city life is the true experience. And it’s one that you will never regret. Gather your friends and/or family members, pile into the car and take a drive. Just drive till you can’t any more and then stop to get a bite to eat at one of these awesome restaurants along the way.

We’ve got a few places where you should definitely escape into and make the most of, so get packing and planning.
