Pondicherry was France's colony on the Indian subcontinent until 1954 when it was ceded to independent India. Most of Pondicherry is like other bustling middle-sized Indian cities, but there's still a nice French Quarter of colonial architecture, quiet streets lined with guest houses, French cuisine, churches, and beaches. It was a pleasant place to wander around for a day and eat some quite good French food after having had mostly Indian meals for weeks.
