Chandigarh Cricket Holidays & Tours

Imagine your perfect city. For the people of India, Chandigarh comes close.

Chandigarh was designed by the Swiss-French modernist architect, Le Corbusier. His buildings include the Capitol Complex with its High Court, Secretariat and Legislative Assembly, as well as the giant Open Hand Monument. The nearby Rock Garden is a park featuring sculptures made of stones, recycled ceramics and industrial relics. Chandigarh, a union territory that is the capital of both Punjab as well as Haryana, is an ideal definition of the word ‘city’. With a culture, that includes instances of both traditional Punjab as well as modernity, Chandigarh’s food and gedi culture (a leisure drive or ride the city) is something that everyone knows of!

Nicknamed the City Beautiful, it was primarily designed by the world-renowned architect Le Corbusier and commissioned following independence from Britain. Like many post-World War II projects it may lack the character of older cities. But it abounds with gardens and sculptures and definitely feels different from other Indian cities. You’ll find the usual plethora of tasty eateries and shopping opportunities but Chandigarh seems greener and less polluted.

Chandigarh highlights include the serene Sukhna Lake, fed by spring water from the hills and home to the colourful Mango Festival during Monsoon season. Leisure Valley is a reclaimed strip of land encompassing the city’s prized Rose Garden. While no Chandigarh visit is complete without a trip to the Open Hand. This 26m high sculpture, which represents peace and reconciliation, is dramatically framed by the Shivalik Hills beyond.

Things to do....

Rock On!

Our Chandigarh top tip is the Nek Chand Rock Garden. This eye-popping mixture of sculpture and nature is one man’s work. By day Nek was a local transport official but at night he collected the debris from the villages bulldozed to clear the ground for the new city and turned it into artwork. The result is both brilliant and bizarre. Lines of dancing girls made from broken glass bangles appear to sway alongside the rope swings in an elegant arcade of towering arches. In the garden’s 25 acres you’ll find everything from cascading waterfalls and rusting car wheels to the odd kitchen sink.

Rock Garden

Rose Garden

Rose Garden located in sector 16 of Chandigarh, Garden is a blooming exhibit that showcases around 825 varieties of flowers and 32,500 varieties of trees and medicinal shrubs. Rose Garden in Chadigarh, also known as Zakir Hussain Rose Garden after the former president of India, is spread over 30 acres and is decked up with an exquisite variety of flowers making it quite popular among tourists and nature enthusiasts. It is the largest garden of its kind in Asia and was built in the year 1967 under the guidance of the First Chief Commissioner, MS Randhawa.
