Town twinning indeed. Amersham is twinned with Benshiem Bensheim in Germany and Krynica in Poland sez a signboard in Amersham. Finally, after looking at the signboard in Amersham for a few months, I've looked up on what it is all about.

I guess it is Bensheim not Benshiem (-heim is quite common in german town names and means just home).
On the city's homepage (http://www.bensheim.de/) you will find a link to a webcam. So you max get some impression of a german "Weihnachtsmarkt"
And apparently Chennai's sister city is Denver,CO! Everytime I hear that, I wonder why?
Denver and Chennai twinned! Interestng way to exchange culture. That reminds me of the time I spent in (The Republic of) Boulder, Colorado. The mountains always reminded me of the hills surrounding Namakkal. The comparison is not exactly precise, particularly when looking at the size of the mountains, but then I like the idea of having Namakkal as the twin city of Boulder.
