Unofficial Chandigarh Tourism Video

I was speaking with a man about travelling and tourism.  I asked where in the world he would like to go.  He paused for a moment, and replied: "Before I take the chance to travel the world, I want to know my own country.  How could I appreciate what else there is before I knew what I have right around me."

Its been two weeks in India, and I feel as though I am living a micro version of his philosophy.  Sure there are a million places to go and a billion people to see, but before venturing off from the city limits, I would like to know what it is that makes Chandigarh 'The Beautiful City'.



I can't promise continuous video updates, but I can promise to continue collecting HD footage whenever and wherever I see fit.  If you leave a comment on the blog, show this blog to a friend, or help me reach 2 000 views (see the counter in the bottom right of the page), I will post another one.

A large number of these people agreed to participate in my antics.  Some of them clearly had no idea what was going on, some were promised to be featured in a small Chandigarh Tourism Video (did not mention unofficial) and some were just excited to see a foreigner.

  4. "Chandigarh has very good infrastructure. The food is awesome. I loved the paratha's sold road side in sector 22-C. If you want to have a dedicated car to move around then you can find the best deals at www.clearcarrental.com/chandigarh.
    Wishing you a very happy stay in Chandigarh."

  5. Lovely video. I really liked it. Of particular interest is Rock Garden, a fantasyland created out of industrial waste and rocks. Gateway to Himachal Pradesh, Chandigarh is known for its proximity to major tourist hillstations like Shimla, Manali, Dharamsala. Explore all other best hotels in Chandigarh.
