Gingee Fort or Senji Fort (also known as Chenji, Chanchi, Jinji or Senchi) in Tamil Nadu, India is one of the surviving forts in Tamil Nadu, India. It lies in Villupuram District, 160 kilometres (99 mi) from the state capital, Chennai, and is close to the Union Territory of Puducherry. The site is so fortified that Shivaji, the Maratha king, ranked it as the "most impregnable fortress in India", and it was called the "Troy of the East" by the British. The nearest town with a railway station is Tindivanam and the nearest airport is Chennai (Madras), located 150 kilometres (93 mi) away.

  • La Forteresse de Gingee (செஞ்சி) ou « Senji » (aussi connu sous le nom de Chenji, Chanchi, Jinji ou Senchi) est l'un des derniers forts existant au Tamil Nadu en Inde. Elle se trouve dans le district de Villupuram, à 147 km de la capitale de l'état Chennai, non loin du Territoire de Pondichéry. L'ouvrage est si puissamment fortifié que le roi Marathe Shivaji, l'a classé comme la forteresse la plus imprenable de l'Inde et il a été appelé la Troie de l'Orient par les Britanniques. (fr)
