Krishnagiri to Chennai Bus Travel Guide

A Krishnagiri to Chennai bus leaves the mango town in the early hours and runs east through Ambur, Vellore, Ratnagiri and Arcot. Its first Chennai area drop is the Kanchipuram Bypass, which makes the temple and silk city of Kanchipuram an easy first stop before the rest of the journey into Chennai.

Departing from Krishnagiri for Chennai

Krishnagiri boarding for this route is at two points, TCR Circle and the spot below the Salem bypass bridge. The Krishnagiri to Chennai bus runs zingbus Plus departures between about 1 AM and 3:20 AM.

Local Transport to Krishnagiri Bus Boarding Points

Autos and app cabs connect the town, the bus stand and the Krishnagiri dam road with both points. Night autos are limited, so arrange a ride in advance.

• TCR Circle: A central town junction, the closer point for the bus stand and market.
• Below the Salem Bypass Bridge: A highway point where the Salem and Bengaluru roads meet.
• From Krishnagiri Bus Stand: Autos reach TCR Circle quickly through the town centre.
• From Kaveripattinam and Bargur: Local buses and cabs run towards the bypass bridge.

The bridge point is on a busy junction, so wait on the side away from fast traffic. Keep the coach number and ticket ready.

Arriving in Chennai

The Krishnagiri to Chennai bus lists more than thirty drops, starting at the Kanchipuram Bypass and Sriperumbudur. Six drops in central and north Chennai use Drop by Cab, where a shared cab completes the journey within your fare.

• Kanchipuram Bypass: The first drop, a short auto ride from Kanchipuram’s temples and silk streets.
• Sriperumbudur and Poonamallee Bypass: Highway drops on the way into the city.
• Koyambedu, Vadapalani and Guindy: Central and western drops with metro links.
• OMR Drops: Tidel Park, Perungudi, Thoraipakkam, Sholinganallur, Navalur and Siruseri.
• Egmore, Kilpauk and Parrys Corner: Shared cab drops serving central and north Chennai.

From the Kanchipuram Bypass, autos reach the town centre in a few minutes. Buses from Kanchipuram run to Chennai’s Koyambedu and Tambaram through the day for the onward trip.

Top Places to Visit in Chennai

Kanchipuram, about 70 km from central Chennai, is one of India’s oldest temple cities and a capital of the Pallavas. Its great temples stand within a few kilometres of each other.

• Kailasanathar Temple: An eighth century Pallava sandstone temple with carved shrines lining its courtyard.
• Ekambareswarar Temple: A huge Shiva temple representing earth, known for its ancient mango tree.
• Kamakshi Amman Temple: The town’s main goddess temple, central to Kanchipuram’s religious life.
• Varadharaja Perumal Temple: A large Vishnu temple with a hall of carved stone pillars.
• Silk Weaving Streets: Homes and shops where Kanchipuram silk saris are woven on handlooms.

Things to Do in Chennai After Your Bus Journey

After the Krishnagiri to Chennai bus, a Kanchipuram stop combines temple art with the city’s famous silk. Autos link every site in the town.

• Pallava Carvings: Kailasanathar’s small shrines show some of the earliest structural temple art in Tamil Nadu.
• Temple Circuit: Visitors often cover Kamakshi, Ekambareswarar and Varadharaja Perumal in one morning.
• Loom Visit: Weaving families in Kanchipuram show how gold zari is worked into silk.
• Silk Shopping: Cooperative societies sell genuine silk saris with government quality marks.
• Onward Trip: Buses from Kanchipuram reach Chennai in about two hours for the evening.

A Practical First Day in Chennai

The bus reaches the Kanchipuram Bypass around dawn, so get off there for this plan. Have breakfast in the town and leave your bags at a lodge or cloakroom.

Visit Kamakshi Amman and Ekambareswarar in the morning, then Kailasanathar before the temples close for the midday break. Have a temple-town lunch nearby.

Spend the afternoon at a weaving street or silk cooperative, and visit Varadharaja Perumal after it reopens. Take a bus to Chennai by evening.

Chennai Local Transport Costs and Sightseeing Budget

For one adult on the Kanchipuram plan, ₹1000 covers autos, the bus to Chennai, meals and snacks. The temples need no general entry ticket, so the figures below are planning allowances. Rooms and the Krishnagiri ticket are not covered.

Expense	Cost or planning allowance
Kanchipuram temples	No entry ticket for general darshan
Autos around Kanchipuram	₹350 per person as a daily planning allowance
Bus from Kanchipuram to Chennai	₹100 per person as a planning allowance
Breakfast, lunch and dinner	₹400 per person as a daily planning allowance
Tea, snacks and water	₹150 per person as a daily planning allowance
Sample day for one adult	₹1000, excluding silk purchases

Silk saris range widely in price and are personal purchases outside this plan. Special darshan and camera tickets at some temples are optional.

Hiring one auto for the whole temple circuit is easier than taking separate rides. Agree on the fare and stops before you start.

Note: All figures are planning allowances; fares may change.

Famous Foods to Try in Chennai

Kanchipuram’s temple kitchens have given their name to some well loved Tamil dishes. Old vegetarian hotels near the temples serve them hot.

Best Time to Travel from Krishnagiri to Chennai

November to February is the most comfortable time for Kanchipuram’s temples and walks. The hot season is harsh in the temple town, and late autumn brings heavy monsoon rain.

• November and December: Cooler days, with temple festivals and some monsoon rain.
• January to March: Pleasant weather, with the Panguni Uthiram festival around March.
• April to June: Very hot middays, so finish temple visits before noon.
