Tiruvottiyur
Tiruvottiyur, one of Chennai's oldest and most culturally significant neighbourhoods, derives its name from "Tiruvottriyur", a reference to the ancient Thyagarajaswamy Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. The area has a strong industrial presence with the Ennore thermal power station and the North Chennai Thermal Power Station nearby. Tiruvottiyur was historically an independent municipality before being merged into the Greater Chennai Corporation, and it retains a distinct identity with its temple festivals, fishing communities along the coast, and well-established residential colonies.
