A long walk from the parking area but its worth it. An auto would take around 400 bucks to take you from White town to Auroville. The walk to the Matrimandir thats the golden globe is a pleasant one with lot of beautiful flowers, huts, trees and so on. But keep in mind to online book the ticket for entering into the matrimandir before hand or your visit would be useless. You can watch the matrimandir from outside and click photos around it for free. After visiting it a stop at the Dreamer's cafe is must to cool down the heat.
