Chettinad doesn't just offer unique mansions, there's a plethora of other activities available as well. Activities include learning how the beautiful Athangudi tiles are made, watching wood carving take place, visiting a local weaving centre and shopping in one of Chettinad's famous antique shops. These experiences are completely unique to Chettinad and can be arranged through your hotel or by discussing with your driver. Alternatively you can simply sit and relax in your hotel.
