Chennai, the gateway to the east coast, is a new city as compared to some others in the south of India; but the colors of its history and contours of its geography make it a fascinating study. The first city of Tamil Nadu was re-christened Chennai from Madras less than two years ago, and that was only the opening of a new chapter in a book that covers 350 years already. Lapped by the waters of the Bay of Bengal in the east and blown by the Deccan winds from the west, Chennai is a vibrant combination of the old and the new, of tradition and change. This is the fourth largest metropolis in India, growing from a fort that Francis Day and his superior Andrew Logan (of the East India Company) built on a narrow tract of no-man’s land.
