Perambur is a neighbourhood in the northern region of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
==Etymology== In Tamil, pirambu (பிரம்பு) means bamboo, and oor (ஊர்) means city or place. Before British rule, this place was as a bamboo forest, particularly around the Huzur Gardens area, which currently houses the Simpsons Pvt. Ltd. The area was annexed to Chennai in 1742.
