Chennai City Introduction

1. Chennai, India, is the 6th most populous city and the 4th largest metropolitan area in India, and the 36th largest metropolitan area in the world. Known as the "Detroit of South Asia," its economy is primarily based on the strength of its automotive, IT, and healthcare industries. It is India's second-largest exporter of software, IT, and IT-enabled services. 2. Marina Beach is a 12 km long urban beach along the coastline of Chennai, India. Unlike the rocky Juhu Beach in Mumbai on India's west coast, the beach is primarily sandy, and several beaches are longer than it, despite many locals claiming it to be the longest (or second longest) beach in the world. These include Cox's Bazar in Bangladesh, Ninety Mile Beach (Australia), and Ninety Mile Beach (New Zealand). 3. Marina Beach was once known for its pristine beauty, lively atmosphere, and rich ecosystem. However, since the mid-20th century, the beach and the water have become polluted. Plastic bags, human waste, and other pollutants (including animal dung) have rendered many parts of the beach unusable. 4. Old Chennai: Chennai is the fourth largest metropolis in India, with a history of nearly 2,000 years, and is known for its rich cultural heritage. 🔥📜 5. Convenient Transportation: The Chennai Metro, with two lines totaling 45 km in length, is expected to open this year, providing a convenient travel experience for nearly 9 million residents. 🚇👥 6. Comfortable Travel: Chennai has an average annual temperature of over 33°C. Dunham-Bush central air conditioning will provide passengers with a comfortable travel environment. 🌞❄ 7. Advanced Technology: Dunham-Bush has provided 60 WCFX-V water-cooled, fully enclosed, variable frequency screw chillers with new variable frequency technology for the Chennai Metro, ensuring that the units are always operating at optimal efficiency under rapidly changing passenger flow conditions, while also saving a significant amount on operating costs.
