Vellore has seen a plethora of dynasties stake claim over it such as the Cholas, Pandyas, Vijayanagar, Pallavas, Hoysalas, Chalukyas, Sambhurvarayars, Rashtrakutas, Carnatic dynasty, Mughals, Bijapur Sultans, Marathas, French and British. The history of Vellore dates back to the 9th century as depicted in Chola inscriptions in the Annamalaiyar Temple in Tiruvannamalai.

There are inscriptions found from before the 9th century pointing to the rule of the Pallava kings. The Chola Kings took the reins from 850 to 1280. After the Cholas, came the Rashtrakutas, the later Cholas, Reddys and Vijayanagar kings. During the 17th century, Vellore came under the dominion of the Nawab of Carnatic. The Palaiyakkarar or poligars opposed British rule but were subdued.

Vellore finds itself etched on the annals of the Indian freedom struggle in that the Sepoy Mutiny of 1806 which took place inside Vellore fort is held as the forerunner of the Revolt of 1857. After Indian independence in 1947, Vellore became a part of the erstwhile Madras state. Currently, Vellore is climbing the ladders of industrialisation while also developing into a medical and educational hub

The colonial past of Puducherry is hard to miss even by the casual walker on the promenade beach. There stands the statue of Francois Dupleix. Not too far away is one of Joan of Arc. It's a trip down France as one crosses symmetrically aligned streets in Puducherry.

The Portuguese have been here, so have the Dutch, the Danes and the English. By the 18th century, this tiny fishing village had turned into a grand port city. The French first set foot here in 1670 and left a part of them when their undisturbed rule finished in 1954. Not much has changed since. The history has become punctuated.

"Puducherry" is the French interpretation of the original name "Puducheri" meaning "new settlement". Many pilgrims have shared the town's hospitality on their way to the temple town of Rameshwaram, thus enriching its culture.
