Egmore
Egmore has served as Chennai's cultural and administrative centre since the British era. The neighbourhood is home to the Government Museum (the second oldest in India) and the National Art Gallery, both set within the leafy Pantheon campus. Egmore Railway Station, a red-brick Edwardian landmark, handles the bulk of Tamil Nadu's intercity rail traffic. The area's streets are lined with heritage buildings, colleges, and a vibrant mix of budget hotels and restaurants that cater to travellers arriving by train.
