Chandigarh – An Incredible North Indian City with Impressive Sightseeing Attractions

Chandigarh is the capital city of Punjab and Haryana which is located at the base of Shivalik Hills. This charming city boasts plenty of sacred religious sites, museums, architectural marvels, lush parks and colourful markets. No trip to this city is complete without visiting the spectacular Rock Garden, an open-air exhibition space which was constructed in 1957 by Nek Chand. This notable site is spread over 40 acres and features more than 5000 sculptures and colourful mosaics created from pipes, bottles, terracotta pots, electrical fittings, broken sanitary ware and other recycled scrap materials. The Mansa Devi Temple is another site worth visiting in the city which was built by Maharaja Gopal Singh of Manimajra; it’s one of India’s prominent Shakti temples with stunning statues.
