Receive a warm welcome from the budget hotels in Chennai for a pleasant stay
An introduction to Chennai
Chennai - the capitol of Tamilnadu came into existence followed by a big historical incident. The city symbolises the rise of British power in South India by setting up and consolidation of the East India Company in the seventeenth century with its headquarters at Fort St. George in Chennai as a trading centre. Within 350 years, a few scattered villages (important being Mylapore, Triplicane and Chennai Patnam) have developed into a modern metropolitan city without shedding its traditional customs, religious outlook and other traditions.
