Why Walk Chandigarh

Chandigarh was designed from scratch in the 1950s by Le Corbusier as the new capital of Punjab after Partition. The Capitol Complex — including the High Court, Secretariat, and Open Hand Monument — is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important collections of modernist architecture in the world. Nek Chand's Rock Garden, built secretly from recycled waste, is a folk-art wonderland.
