Tondiarpet
Tondiarpet is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Chennai, with deep roots in the city's maritime and trading history. Located close to Chennai Port, the area has a vibrant mix of residential communities, busy commercial streets, and wholesale markets. Despite rapid urbanisation, Tondiarpet retains its old-world charm with narrow lanes, local temples, and a thriving street-food culture that reflects North Chennai's unique identity.
