13) The unlimited sweet shops of Sowcarpet, mainly due to the Marwaris living there, will attract the sweet-tooth in you. And, one must visit Agarwal Bhojanalaya near Chennai Central for some authentic Rajasthani cuisine.

14) The British-era architecture, with its large sophisticated buildings, is worth a watch. And just within 70km, you can enjoy the French culture too! British mixed with Tamil mixed with French is truly an amazing combo.

15) Temples! Oh God, how did I forget to include this! Large temples are literally present everywhere. And if you go to Mylapore, you can see three-four large temples in a single street! Huge gopurams, tall shikharas, unstoppable aunties adorned in silk and gold can be seen throughout the day, especially if it is an auspicious day.

16) Peace! I don’t think I have ever heard of a terrorist attack or a bomb explosion in Chennai. Even though it is a melting pot of almost all cultures, religions, castes, regions and races. I have seen almost all kinds of people in Chennai, but not a single terrorist attack. (Yes, Dalit vs Brahmin issues are there in TN, but violence is negligible in Chennai)
