Exploring Chennai’s heritage with the latest technology

Our city, founded in 1639 as a small piece of no man’s land, has grown into a vast metropolis.

Dotted about Chennai are several historic buildings, parks, entertainment spaces, streets and homes that have a tale to tell. Unfortunately with the pressure of urban growth and modernisation, these stand in danger of being forgotten. This app is an attempt to create a virtual space for Chennai’s past and its vibrant heritage.

You simply need to locate a structure or space that intrigues you and check if this app has its tale.
