History and Geography of Vellore
I Square Taxi offers One-way Drop Taxi, Drop Taxi, and Round Trip services for those exploring Vellore’s rich history.
Vellore has served as the seat of various dynasties, including the Pallavas, Cholas, Nayaks, Marathas, Arcot Nawabs, and Bijapur Sultans. Renowned as a formidable fortress during the Carnatic War in the 17th century, it also witnessed the massacre of European soldiers during the 1806 mutiny. The district is covering an area of 6,077 sq. km.
Vellore’s cultural heritage is significant, featuring traditional arts like Therukoothu, a folk theater, and Kokkalikottai, a traditional dance, which are gradually fading. However, handicrafts such as mat making in Walajapet, silk weaving in Arni, and pot making around Vellore continue to thrive. The Poomalai scheme introduced by the government aims to preserve and promote these traditional crafts.
