Coimbatore has always been associated with textiles and educational institutions but little do people know that this South Indian city offers ample opportunities for tourists as well. Among the top places to visit in Coimbatore are its historically rich and majestic temples, such as Sidhapudur Sree Ayyappa Temple, Arulmigu Avinashi Lingeshwarar, Arulmigu Koniamman, and Thirumoorthy Malai Temple.
Besides offering prayers at the religious centres, Coimbatore visitors can plan a trip to the VOC Park and Zoo, enjoy birdwatching at Ukkadam-Valankulam Lake, explore the local museums or plan a day out at Kovai Kondattam amusement park for some adventure and fun. Shopping for silk sarees, and other items at markets like Oppanakara Street and Cross-Cut Road also counts among top things to do in Coimbatore.
After strolling through the markets, it is a good idea to experience the city’s gastronomic culture and gorge on delicacies like keema dosa, kothu parotta, kalan varuval and prawn kurma with idli at local restaurants. Party lovers can make the most of Coimbatore’s nightlife at pubs and nightclubs such as Flames, Tease, and WXYZ.
Just a little farther from Coimbatore are many stunning beaches and some popular hill stations, such as Ooty and Coonoor that make for perfect weekend getaways.
