CHANDIGARH TOURISM

Chandigarh is independent India’s first planned city. Designed by the French architect Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, popular as Le Corbusier, it serves as a capital of Punjab and Haryana. Standing as a symbol of planned urbanization, Chandigarh is also famous for its gardens like the Rose Garden and the Rock Garden. The calm and serene Chandigarh busts the popular perception that cities are always noisy.

Chandigarh has a dense cover of green; forests, which provide sanctuary for various animal species, surround the city. Sukhna Lake, which lies south of the Rock Garden is home to a variety of birds including migratory ones. CHECK OUT 5 Reasons to Visit Chandigarh in North India
