I didn’t visit Chennai when I first landed there at the beginning of my Indian adventure because we prefer to just rest and hung out for a few days. But on my last day in India I flew from Madurai to Chennai with time enough to explore the city before taking my flight to Europe. I arrived at lunch time and the flight to Frankfurt was in the late evening so I had time to visit the more important landmarks in the city. I met Dimitry in the airport and we explore together the city in a few hours. On the airport we took the best Autoricksack in India, new vehicle with a big pair of speakers and a subwoofer. No audio system, I guess the driver spent all the money on the speakers and he forgot to buy the radio 
Driving the best Autorickshaw in the world
We saw the main monuments of the city, the beautiful beach were locals hung out and we went to a real Indian market to buy the same stuff this people buy. Chennai were my last hours in Indian soil. At that time I was so sick of South Indian food I just wanted to go to the airport and eat crappy Western food!
