 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.
