A trip to Chandigarh

When i look back and think about the cities i visited in last few years two cities come my mind. Udaipur & Chandigarh. Both very beautiful, clean and peaceful as compared to its peers and both of them have been recently visited by me. But there are few other things becoz of which i am more attracted towards Chandigarh the capital of Haryana & Punjab also referred as The City Beautiful.

Unlike majority of the cities of our country it has no history. Chandigarh is young, cool and happening. You would definately fall in love with this city. There are no traffic snarls, no high rise buildings, no pollution. One of my colleague told me that police in chandigarh is very alert. They might raid your house even if you are using the in your home a chimney of small size which is used to prepare tandoori roti. As a tax payer u feel great that you money is not being wasted.

During my visit i got nostalgic after reaching Sec-17. When i was in college we (Bangla, Shreejit, Tushant & me) made a trip to this city to watch the latest bollywood (as if you only watch hollywood) flick (now you are ultra modern coz u have left 'picture' and 'movie' behind) featuring Preity Zinta - Veer-Zaara in the cold winter of Nov'04. The best a hardcore PZ fan could have done. We caught a night bus from Hamirpur and reached Chandigarh by m'ing. Watched movie, visited Tushant's uncles place, went to Sec-17 market and with so many beautiful babes around it was quite an experience. Sec-17 reminds me of Bangla's favourite bar - The Blue Ice' and his fav. cocktail - Pink Panties. He went crazy from the time he entered the bar.

The girls here are really beautiful unlike their delhi counterparts who are smart but lack natural beauty which one would associate with the punjabi kudis. The night life is cool with girls also hanging out till late night in pubs, a delight for guy like me. People here are wealthy, infact it has the highest per-capita income if i am not wrong. There are some beautiful places in and around the city like Sukhna lake, rock garden which i am yet to explore. The city has a lot of green cover which you can easily notice on both sides of the road. The climate here is very pleasent and on a whole the city is quite peaceful.

Truely The City Beautiful and City For Everybody!
