Chennai is the state capital of Tamil Nadu and a vibrant city along the southeastern coast of India. Rich cultural heritage and well-developed modern scenarios are actually what make the city popular. As one of India’s biggest metropolitan cities, Chennai acts as a major hub for many sectors: the IT industry, healthcare, and education.

The city is replete with major attractions, such as Marina Beach, one of the world’s longest urban beaches. Strolls on the beach take away leisure time as many stalls with lively street food infuse additional zeal. Fort St. George dates back to 1640 and remains as a mark of Chennai’s colonial past. This is a ‘must-visit’ place for the history enthusiast and for an architectural marvel like Kapaleeshwarar Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, which evolves a Dravidian artwork and attracts countless devotees and tourists.

Chennai is also a cultural hub, with great fame for the traditional music and dance of the city. The month-long December Music Season, organized by the city’s music enthusiasts, attracts an audience from all over the world to celebrate such rich heritage of Carnatic music and Bharatanatyam.

Apart from these cultural and historical merits, the economy of the city of Chennai is very robust. Popularly known as the “Detroit of India,” it has keen growth in the automobile industry. The city boasts enormous IT parks and a great number of startups that add a flavor of innovation and entrepreneurship.

Culinary delights also make for Chennai, with its South Indian food and special diets like dosas, idlis, and filter coffee, from the humble local eateries to the sophisticated restaurants of the best kind.

In general, Chennai would be the place that would reconcile the traditional and modern worlds. It would be totally a place no tourist would experience anywhere else. The hospitality is warm, and its atmosphere shows life and happenings.
