Chandigarh

Chandigarh is best known as the city that was planned by the famous French architect ‘Le Corbusier’. The capital of both Haryana and Punjab, Chandigarh with large open spaces, lush green forests and gardens, well planned road and civic system is often referred to as the ‘Garden City’ by its residents.

While sightseeing in Chandigarh, ensure that you visit the Capitol complex which is the most notable architectural achievement of Le Corbusier in the city. Chandigarh’s most popular visible symbol is ‘the Open Hand’. It rotates freely depending on the direction of the winds, conveying the message: ‘open to give, open to receive’. One of Chadigarh’s major features is its Leisure valley that extends from one end of the city to another and of course the Rock Garden.
