Alwarpet is a residential zone in central Chennai and is a part of the greater Teynampet region.[1] It is surrounded by Teynampet in the north and west, Mylapore, Mandavelli and Abhiramapuram in the east, Raja Annamalaipuram in the south, and Nandanam in the southwest. It is among the most upscale neighbourhoods in Chennai. The geographical location of this area allows centralized access to all parts of the city, so it is typically called as "Heart of Chennai".
