Chandigarh is the best-planned
city in India, with architecture which is world-renowned,
and a quality of life, which is unparalleled. As the capital
of the states of Punjab and Haryana, and the Union Territory
of Chandigarh it is a prestigious city. The face of modern
India, Chandigarh, is the manifestation of a dream that Pt.
Jawahar Lal Nehru envisaged and Le Corbusier executed.
Serenity and a city are two diametrically opposite
concepts, which however, get belied in the 'City Beautiful'.
Chandigarh is a rare epitome of modernization co-existing
with nature's preservation. It is here that the trees and
plants are as much a part of the construction plans as the
buildings and the roads. India’s first planned city,
is a rich, prosperous, spic and span, green city rightly called
“ THE CITY BEAUTIFUL ”.
