Tambaram
Tambaram is one of Chennai's most significant suburban towns, functioning as a major transit hub connecting the city to its southern suburbs and neighbouring districts. The locality is anchored by Tambaram Railway Station, one of the busiest suburban stations on the Chennai Beach–Chengalpattu line, and the sprawling 365-acre campus of Madras Christian College, one of Asia's oldest colleges. With the expansion of Chennai's metropolitan limits, Tambaram has evolved from a satellite town into a well-integrated urban centre with growing residential and commercial activity.
