Cuddalore, Port city in Tamil Nadu, India
Located at the confluence of Ponnaiyar and Gadilam rivers, Cuddalore extends along the Coromandel Coast of the Bay of Bengal in southeastern India.
The British East India Company established trading rights in Cuddalore in 1682, transforming this ancient seaport into an important commercial center.
The Pataleswarar Temple from the 7th century stands as a Hindu religious monument dedicated to Lord Shiva within the city limits.
The municipality covers 27.69 square kilometers with three railway stations connecting to major cities and a central bus terminal near Thiruppathiripuliyur station.
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami required the evacuation of 61,000 residents, leading to substantial reconstruction efforts including new houses and schools.
