Chennai : Shopping

ShoppingChennai is renowned for its handlooms, both the exquisite Kancheepuram silk sarees and the cottons used designed sarees, shirts and domestic furnishers. The Co-optex showrooms offer a wide variety of both types of handlooms, whereas the Khadi centres are better known for their cotton varieties. The several Nalli shops, the Rasi showroom in Mylapore and other saree shops near Panagal Park and Dhun Building (Anna Salai) specialise in the finest silks. Several boutiques have exclusively designed more modern sarees.

Chennai is also a major handicrafts centre; the Government's Poompuhar specialising in metal (Bronze) and stone work articles. The Victoria Technical Institute has perhaps the widest variety of South Indian handicrafts. Anna Salai offers comfortable shopping for all varieties of goods in western comfort, whereas George Town offers the same variety in a bazaar atmosphere.
