Big Christmas Trees @ 6 Malls in Chennai

Yesterday I decided to undertake a small adventure. I (rightly) guessed that the malls in Chennai would’ve erected big Christmas trees for this festive season. So I thought why not visit the malls, take photos of the Christmas trees, and show it to blog readers? To make this challenge more interesting, I decided to use public transport instead of going in my bike. 

Result? I visited six malls at various locations in the city using just buses and metro (except one route – Express Avenue to City Center, where I had to take an auto). I started from my home at 2 P.M. and was back by 10 P.M. I realized one can easily travel in buses across the city. Of course, since it was a Sunday there was not much crowd, and that was important for me to even consider taking up this adventure 🙂

Here are the pics of Christmas decorations/Large Christmas Trees from six malls, in the order in which I visited: (First one is above)

      Yes that’s huge. I just wish they had some focus lights facing the exhibits so that it appears brighter.

    Each Christmas tree stands for their unique decorations! Really amazing how u were able to cover all these malls in half a day… well utilized the public transport and wish many follow your way, and I think for people who travel alone, public transportation could be easiest and best.

    Happy New Year, Rajesh 🙂

      I didn’t expect it to be easy, but it was not tough either. I guess the key was I traveled on a Sunday. Other days, public transport is heavily crowded!
