Chennai’s landmarks sit in clusters, and the coast ties most of them together.
City Circuit: Mylapore and Santhome sit close together. Egmore and the fort make a second trip.
Beach Visit: Swimming is not advised along Marina. Stay on the sand and follow the posted warnings.
The range of what survives here, from temples to forts to churches, is the point.
Away from the monuments, Chennai is neighbourhoods, filter coffee and music season.
Performance Planning: Book ahead during the December music season. The popular sabhas fill quickly.
Getting Around: The city is spread out. Pairing distant neighbourhoods in one day rarely works.
Food and music here are worth as much of your time as the sightseeing.
