Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu is bustling with activity and traffic but it is truly old world,with a sprinkling of modernity thrown here and there. Tamil Nadu is fiercely protective about its culture and traditions. Chennai is dotted with several temples and museums which are worth a visit.

The Tamilian people are warm and welcoming but still very possessive about their cuisine.  The food available here is spicy but authentic and tempting. Spices are the star of Tamil cuisine.  Althoughthe food is largely vegan but you also get here non vegetarian mughlai cuisine with an interesting South Indian twist.

Mylapur is the cultural and historical hub of this area which would take you back in history with its 7th century Kapaleshwar temple. San Thomas Basilica and Ramakrishna Math are also some popular tourist spots. 

As Chennai has hot and humid summers and often a torrential rainfall in winters the best time to visit is the pre-winter and winter months of October to February, when the temperature is not too extreme and you could also enjoy cool sea breeze day and night.
