It is a must visit place in Chennai. An early morning walk on the beach while you watch the sun rise is incomparable.

Breakfast –How can you miss the great south Indian breakfast which is famous all over the world?Indulge in some idlis and dosas along with chutney and the lip smackingly delicious Sāmbhar. Piping hot vadas and a cup of filter coffee should complete the breakfast. You cannot visit chennai without trying out their food.

From the rare blackbucks to spotted deer, jackals to turtles, you can see them all in one place. The Snake Park is an exciting idea if you want to see all kinds of snakes under one roof. Cobras and pythons are also present here.

ECR –The east coast road is a road that runs parallel to the beach. It leads to Pondicherry. It is one of the most magnificent roads in the country having a beautiful view of the blue sea. A ride on this road in the evening to watch sun set is a must.
