Take to the temple

Book London to Chennai flights and you’ll notice a stark contrast in the architecture of the two cities. London’s iconic stone and marble buildings are a world away from the bright colours of Chennai.

Head to one of the city’s most traditional neighbourhoods, such as Mylapore, and marvel at the ornately decorated Kapaleeshwarar Temple – a stunning Hindu structure.
