Karaikudi, in Sivaganga district, Tamil Nadu, is the commercial heart of the Chettinad region, about 100 km east of Madurai and 120 km southeast of Trichy, located on NH 536 (the Thirumayam-Karaikudi corridor). The town grew through the wealth of the Nagarathar (Chettiar) merchant community, whose 19th and early 20th-century overseas trading fortunes financed the grand 'karai veedu' mansions seen across the area, built with Burma teak, Italian marble, and locally made Athangudi tiles. Today Karaikudi remains known for its antique markets trading in vintage furniture and curios, and for distinctive Chettinad cuisine featuring dishes such as Chettinad chicken and kuzhi paniyaram. Nearby Kanadukathan hosts the Chettinad Heritage Festival each April, drawing visitors to the region's mansion architecture and Carnatic music performances. Heritage tourists, photographers, and culinary travellers regularly use Karaikudi as a base for exploring the Chettinad circuit.
