As the title suggest its one of the oldest shopping mall in chennai. Try and not to get lost, but worth a visit, you can pick up some wollens if you have to visit the northern part of the country.

Many shops selling "made in India goods". I bought some nice Kashmiri Rugs, which they shipped to my California address. It was not a mall for finding global designer brands, but I thought that was a good thing. Parking cost $0.80

It takes so much time to enter and exit the plaza. Not worth it unless you have a driver to drive you in and out of the plaza.

They keep theer wares right where the shoppers walk. The owners do not pay the regular maintenance and slowly all the basic amenities like air conditioning, escalators, lifts... More

This mall was one I the best many years back. Poor maintainance has made this place look cheap and dirty. It's like a bazaar in a air conditions mall where many invite you into their shop to buy something. I prefer EA mall to this one.

this was my 3rd vistit to Spencer Plaza so I knew what to expect. Being an European woman traveling alone, I could have felt afraid, but once you know where you are going, and don't let shop keepers invites to bother you and dont' mind saying no thanks million times, then this is your place.
