Chennai is really a good place to live and where we can get exposed and learn a lot here.I do stay here in chennai for my business purposes and i do miss my family very much and inspite of it i have learnt to enjoy this place with my colleg friends and my company friends.

Hi never been to Chennai, but it looks like an interesting city to visit. Apparently Chennai has quite a strong industrial sector. I am just wondering if thats not killing the beaty of the city? Normally industrialised cities are not really good tourist attractions, like Detroit in America, to me that was pretty ugly and depressing.

thanx for ur nice replu,that was quite informative.yes chennai is partly industrialised bt the best part is that the industries are located on the outskirts,very far away from the main hub of the city and since we live on the sea shore we do not get that much of industiral pollution!

hi i live in chennai . I too love chennai . it is really wonderful place. any person simple , modern, poor , rich , ...simply any kinda person can live here in their own interest. education is very good. the standard is maintained here. the cost of living is also affordable and not like in other cities like bombay , delhi where the living is becoming very costly . also there r lot of cool places to hang out like spencers, beach , lots and lots of restaurants , many temples, etc ... even u haev very good doctors . medical facilities r very good in chennai . chennai is a very humble city for any kind of person to adapt.

i think t is intersting!!!Chennai, (formerly known as Madras) the capital of Tamil Nadu, lies along the coast of the Bay of Bengal, developed after 1639 when the British East India Company established a fort and trading post at the small fishing village of Chennai. Over the past three and a half centuries, the small fishing village has grown into a bustling metropolis which is especially known for its spaciousness which is lacking in other Indian cities. This characteristic is exemplified by the long esplanade called the Marina and which is lined by impressive buildings which remind the casual visitor of the long and inseparable association the city has had with the British. Even elsewhere in the city, one cannot fail to notice the dominant British influences in the form of old cathedrals, buildings in the Indo-Saracenic style of architecture, wide tree lined avenues. However, though the English legacy is undeniable, Madras has continued to be a centre which has blended the foreign influence with the traditional Tamil-Hindu culture. As a city it continues to maintain the best of South Indian traditions. This is not surprising because the region was an important centre of Pallavan culture long before the British came here and the traces of which are to be found in the numerous old temples. Thus, the unwary visitor will find Madras more than just a gateway of South India. He shall find it a convenient base to peep into the varied aspects of traditional south Indian culture and life styles which intermingle with the modern city complete with its plush hotels and restaurants - offering a range of continental and typical south Indian cuisine, long and uncrowded stretches of beaches, modern shopping centres which offer traditional handicrafts, textiles and much more peculiar to this part of India. Besides the modern city itself, there are several interesting towns like Mamallapuram and Kanchipuram, each with a rich collection of ancient temples and an array of traditional handicrafts which are very much their own. Pondicherry, famous for its Aurobindo ashram.
