Many great monuments were built during the British rule and several of them continue to dominate the skyline of Chennai even today.

We shall start at the Central Railway Station and walk to the Ripon Building, Southern Railway Headquarters, Victory Memorial, Fort St George, Napier Bridge and finish at the Madras University building.
