Alamparai -a photo feature
The milestone says about 50 kms to Pondicherry
This is the 17th century Alamparai fort also called Alampara or Adamparai. Built during the Mughal era it was ruled by the Nawab of Carnatic and was later on gifted to the French for their support. The British eventually destroyed the fort and the dockyard which was more than 100 metres long.
A rusted ASI board gives us more information. Alamparai, it says was the ancient land of Idaikazhunadu Pondicherry
“Do you want to go boating ?” asks a local . The sea looks inviting, but the sun sends me a warning . I decide to give it a pass although the salts of the sea did beckon us.
Beautiful composing of pictures! The blue sky gives a perfect background. I had been to this fort ruin last year and being near the water was wonderful.
This place is very peaceful, but it is much ruined now, Its one of precious antic place. The sea side and combination of land, water and blue sky add wonderful scene.
The place is really beautiful. Nagaon beach in Alibaug near Mumbai is also similar.
