Chandigarh; is a very beautiful city & union territory in India. It is the capital of both Haryana and Punjab. The most striking thing about the city is the expanse of resplendent blue sky with the mountains in the backdrop. When you are approaching the city, you would see the jagged skyline of the Shivalik Hills looming large over the city and the faint image of an old temple dedicated to Goddess Chandi from which the city got its name.Being one of the best planned cities of India, with sufficient amounts of greenery, Chandigarh is called as "City of Beautiful".
