Sister cities

Twinned with Chennai

5 of 8 in this atlas

Chennai maintains twinning relationships with five cities across different continents: Chongqing in China, Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, San Antonio in the United States, Ulsan in South Korea, and Volgograd in Russia. Each of these pairings is mutual, meaning both cities formally recognize the relationship. The connections span East Asia, Southeast Asia, North America, and Europe, reflecting a geographically varied set of formal municipal ties rather than a regional concentration.
