About Chandigarh

Connected by pedestrian walkways and tree lined boulevards Chandigarh is the most European of all India’s modern cities. Designed by Swiss architect Le Corbusier in 1950 it was a projection of what was to come for newly Independent India. Our selection of the best places to stay in Chandigarh are all very central, so ideal bases for exploring the wider city.

The combined capital of Haryana and Punjab, Chandigarh is famed for its hearty cuisine. Punjab Grill, renowned restaurateur Jiggs Kalra’s baby, works wonders with the tandoor. Dining amidst the ivory and gold décor creates a truly regal feel.

Architecture fans will be fascinated by Le Corbusier Centre. Documenting personal letters and sketches as well as the physical and political journey toward the creation of Chandigarh.

A labour of love for local artist, Nek Chand Rock Garden is a display of 20 years of his sculpture work. Totally over 2000 sculptures they are made from the stone, junk and debris left over from the 50 or so villages that were destroyed in order to build Chandigarh.
