Chennai,
formerly known as Madras is one of the most
vibrant cities of the country. It is the
fourth largest metropolitan cities of the
country. Even while other cities of South
India have risen into prominence due to
rare feats in the IT and automobile industries,
the popularity of Chennai has remained unaffected.
A remarkable feature of this city is that
it has managed to encompass technology along
with keeping the spirit of Chennai intact.
Glimpses of the rich cultural heritage of
the city can be seen at every aspect of
the cities’ activities.
Chennai has something
to offer for all tastes. Literally speaking,
the taste of Chennai lies in its vadas
and Dosas which are internationally famous
food items. But in a more figurative manner,
the taste of Chennai lies in its beaches,
the devotion to classical music and dance,
the admirable monuments, the fanatic love
for movies and so on. The glory of the
city is that it has retained its charm
amidst its envious development in the
field of IT and the automobile industry.
The city has championed the cause of education
and has been the hub for education and
learning for many years. The city is also
a hub for religious activities and has
a lot of well known churches and temples.
