You can learn a lot of interesting information from taking a tour of a medical facility. Check to see if MIOT International Hospital is open to visitors while you are in town.
This health care institution is often on the itineraries of travelers to Manapakkam. But MIOT International Hospital isn't the only drawcard in the area. Consulate General of the United States, Chennai, Kapaleeswarar Temple, and Edward Elliot's Beach are some other recommended attractions close by.
