About Chandigarh

Chandigarh, the shared capital of Punjab and Haryana, is a unique city known for its modern architecture and urban planning by the famous architect Le Corbusier. It is one of the best-planned cities in India, with a grid of sectors, clean roads, and abundant green spaces. Key attractions include the serene Sukhna Lake, a popular spot for boating and walking, and the extraordinary Rock Garden, a fantasy world created entirely from industrial and urban waste by artist Nek Chand. The city's organized structure and artistic soul make it a pleasant and interesting destination.
