Having earned the epithet of City Beautiful
Chandigarh surely lives up to it. Chandigarh is a Union Territory as
well as the only capital city of two states namely Punjab and
Haryana in India. The city derived its name from Goddess Chandi.
Designed by French Architect Le Corbusier, Chandigarh is the first
modern planned city of India. Situated near the foothills of the
Himalayan ranges Shivalik, Chandigarh is a nature lover's paradise.
Amidst beautiful hills and the Sukhna Lake, the city acts as a
magnet for people longing for pollution free and peaceful stay.
Chandigarh enjoys an excellent climate due to its proximity to
Himachal Pradesh and thus is frequented by global tourists
throughout the year. |
