The Animated City of Chandigarh

I loved the architecture and landscape About Chandigarh; this city of Charming Contrast is really an animated modern city. Do you know how Chandigarh got its name? Well, it is the temple of ‘Chandi’ the goddess of power and ‘garh’, a fort lying beyond the temple that gave the city its name. So when you visit Chandigarh, do not forget to visit the temple and the fort. What is the other exclusivity about Chandigarh other than being a city? Well, it is a Union Territory of India constituted on 1st November 1966. Chandigarh happens to be the first planned city of India; it was designed by the eminent urban theorist and architect, Le Corbusier.

You will love Shopping in Chandigarh, the centres being located in the various sectors; the most crowded being Sector 17. The City Centre at Sector 17 is one of the most preferred places for shopping in Chandigarh where you will find everything you want!

Dining in the Restaurants in Chandigarh can be great fun! Mouthwatering and appetizing cuisines, snacks food, desserts, and more fill up the menu in all the restaurants in Chandigarh. Few restaurants worth mentioning are the Connoisseur, Sundaram's, Hot Millions, Yangtse, Chop Sticks, etc.
