A sprawling city on the coasts of Bay of Bengal, Madras was renamed as Chennai a few years back. Before the Britishers came and developed the place as a port town for trade purpose in the 17th century, it was a village of fisherfolk known as Chennai. Today it is a blend of British, South Indian and cosmopolitan cultures. The beaches and the South Indian dishes are the enjoyable attractions.
How to reach:
The city is well-connected by air, rail and road. It has an international
airport. There is also shipping services. A passenger liner connects
the town with Port Blair.
