From 1st April, the entry fees to visit Mamallapuram heritage site has been increased three fold. Central Archeological Society is maintaining this world famous place which consists of Pallava time sculptures.  

Local people including Indian and foreign tourists throng to this temple shore. Earlier Rs 10 was charged as entry fee and Rs 250 for foreign tourists.
 
The rate which was fixed in 1966 was decided to be hiked by the Central Government. Accordingly the entry fees have been increased by three times.
 
Now Rs 30 will be charged for domestic tourists while foreign tourists will be charged Rs 500.
 
Officials of Archeological Society say that the increase of the entry fees will not be a big burden to the tourists.
