Since we will eventually be talking about Chandigarh, we would like you to take you a little back in time. Perhaps some 50 years ago when Chandigarh wasn’t the typically planned city that we see today but a swathing land of approximately 50 villages. Majorly, it was a culmination of many vast farmlands that still continues to contribute to its fertile and green tapestry.

All thanks to Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier, the city is currently considered the most planned city in entire India and rightly so. Truth be told, if there is one city that exudes the calmness of a small town and chaos of a big city at the same time, then it has to be Chandigarh. Though it is slowly becoming a hub of many clubs, pubs, and industrial centres, it is the natural beauty of the city that makes people flock to this touristy place.
