For anyone visiting Chennai for the first time, this is a must visit, even as recommended by trip advisor and lonely planet. This is a very ancient and traditional temple with a pond adjoining it. Located in the heart of the city, it atracts a lot of crowds for the main deity Lord Shiva. The temple is big and accomodates a huge number of people during festivals. Parking is ample but very tight on Fridays and holidays. You can manage to squeeze some where. Its a paid parking system, just ensure you are billed correctly.
Festivals are happening in this place. The annual theppam festival render roads blocked.
Eateries around the temple are famous.
Overall a great temple and a must visit!
