Given that already so many kids are down with viral infections already, this place is a strict no-no, atleast during the weekends. I could barely breathe.The rides(merry go round and other stuff ) for kids are a total waste of money. Most of the equipment are really old and I would strongly suggest we dont waste time and effort visiting the place. The only reason to go would probably be the stalls put up by the tourism board, if at all you are interested.
Parking is a BIG problem if u go on weekends. It definitely isnt worth the effort driving all the way down. |
Oh No!! I thought of going there one evening when I visit Chennai (end of Feb/First week of March) Is it that bad??
I 've always had fond memories of walking in the sand and buying junk jewelry from the shops...eating the huge masala appalam, etc, etc...
Do you know till when this exhibition will be held? Maybe I can go on a weekday evening so the crowd will be less!!
