Chennai is a place of Hindu tradition and culture, with room for entertainment that the young want and the religious vibes the old craves.
Mylapore
Loved by every photographer in town, Mylapore is a colourful place that is scattered with hidden gems, like historic temples and gorgeous window shops that serve hot meals in the wee mornings. The Kapaleeshwarar Kovil is the limelight of Mylapore; built in the 17th century, this temple was made for Lord Shiva and is by far, the most impressive kovil in the vicinity. Apart from being religious, Mylapore is also a business hub of the city and, therefore, you can find a branch of any business hotel in Chennai here.
East Coast Road
This long stretch of road goes down all the way to Pondicherry and further, and taking a drive on this scenic beach route is a much-loved activity among young bikers and car owners. There are a lot of hotels on this route, like Turyaa Chennai, for instance, where you can stop for some rest or a snack if you are tired.
Ann Centenary Library
Built in the memory of Aringar Anna’s 100th birthday, this is one of the biggest libraries in South Asia. Nine floors filled with more than 500,000 books, this library is a must visit for the book lovers.
Marina Beach
No visit to Chennai is complete without a visit to this iconic beach. For a real Chennai evening, do visit this beach and watch the sunset.
