Madras is city where drawing up a strict sightseeing itinerary is a little pointless. Sure, the city has some fine British-built monuments that one should not miss gazing at. And some attractive churches. A giant beach...
But the colourful culture of Madras -- the modern-day legacy of an ancient, powerful civilization -- is what is worth searching for or "sightseeing". And that can be absorbed by walking the typical Madrasi neighbourhoods of Mylapore or Parrys or Mambalam or participating in an aarti at one of the important temples of Madras, like Kapalishvara
Temple, or purusing the big bazaars of the city.
But we have included all the famous landmarks. Mylapore gets our top recommendation
