Overview
Mamallapuram, also known as Mahabalipuram, a UNESCO World Heritage town on Tamil Nadu's coast famed for its 7th-century rock-cut temples and shore architecture, lies about 1340 km from Mumbai, a drive of 22-24 hours that Miles Tours and Travels typically plans with an overnight halt around Hyderabad. The route follows NH65 through Solapur and Hyderabad, then continues on NH44/NH716 towards Chennai before the final short stretch south along the East Coast Road to Mamallapuram. Built by the Pallava dynasty, the town's Shore Temple, Pancha Rathas and the Arjuna's Penance rock relief are internationally recognised examples of ancient Dravidian stone carving, drawing both history enthusiasts and beachgoers to its Bay of Bengal coastline. Since Mamallapuram sits just under an hour from Chennai, many travellers combine both destinations in a single cab itinerary, using Chennai as a base for city amenities and Mamallapuram as a day or overnight excursion. Miles Tours plans the highway stretch through Andhra Pradesh and the coastal approach into Tamil Nadu with rest stops appropriate for the long distance, and the East Coast Road section near the end offers a scenic seaside drive that many travellers find a pleasant conclusion to the long haul from Mumbai.
