Seven Wonders of Chennai

I have compiled the seven wonders of Chennai after 40 days of extensive exploration (not listed in the order of preference).

City Center: Yes people, even Chennai has a good mall which is of some relief to trespassers like me. I just hope I don’t get bored by the only mall of Chennai even if I go there every weekend for the next 6 months.




Best Combo: Good looks are rarest to find in Chennai. Here is a rare combination of two good looking things!!





Clean, wide, green roads: Chennai has some ( at least this word covers up the fact that there are just 3 of them) clean, wide roads where you can walk without covering your sense organs!!





Church: An architectural wonder where you can find two rarities of Chennai – peace and beautiful faces!!!





Beach: I somehow feel connected to the waves hitting the Chennai beach. Both of us desperately try leaving this place but are forced again and again to live here.




Deception point: You at least feel Chennai is a metro, even if that feeling is momentary and dies as soon as you cross it.




Method of weighing: The most unique method of weighing which I can bet you will not find anywhere in the world.




This picture also serves as a qualification test for people who can settle happily in Chennai. If you can be ignorant to this extent and accept this method of weighing, you don’t need the above six wonders to live here without cribbing.


P.S: You are most welcome to vote for the best wonder. So feel free to drop in your votes as comments.

@ naveen
actually some(implication of this word remains the same as is used in the blog) of the pics were taken by tushar but the entire idea was mine..!!

i'm a bit confused between "the beach" n "city center" about the 2nd slot.....but my vote for the best one definitely goes to "FIESTA with PALLAVI standing besides".....

Unknown said...

No points for guessing the best wonder of Chennai. Now you know why did fiesta “Go Fida”

Miles to go before something dawns said...

well....for the last couple of years i ave been forced to be at a place where people walk faster than cars
So my vote goes to the wide traffic free roads where u can drive faster than walking people....

dee said...

Oh dear you seem to be obsessed with good looking faces. My advice would be "Beauty lies in the eyes of BEER-HOLDER ;)". So i think now you know how to find good looks:).
