If you need peace, you should go to Kerala once, especially Kerala Backwaters. Have seen many of my friends/colleagues from Mumbai going there and praising it. Being a Malayalee, I've never gone there though.

Hmmm... If you do a bit of reading, a lot if questions will be answered. All these places were with French, and hence never "got" their independence from British in 1947. One thing unique you might find in Pondicherry is that some of the olden day structures will have a different feel, simply because the French had a slightly different style as compared to English for construction.French remains an official language in the districts of Pondicherry itself and Karaikal. It was NOT an optional language, till a decade ago. Not sure now.
About Kerala backwaters... as i mentioned earlier... there is no fast and easy way to reach these places. consider me the lazy type. go to airport. sit in plane. land. one or two hour drive and you have reached your destination

Been to Pune/Lonavala Hill station? Or Khandala? I have not been there - But comes to mind as a spot "near" a big/medium city
Was about to suggest the same, including Mahabaleshwar. Good places. Daman and Diu can also be considered.
