The City Beautiful, Chandigarh, India

Chandigarh is aliased as The City Beautiful and it deserve to be. I knew this when I lived in Chandigarh for one month from Jan-10 to Feb-10 and it was a good experience. I have gone to many cities in India but I have never seen a city as well arranged as Chandigarh. The beauty is that every house in Chandigarh is of same structure and in a row. Chandigarh is divided in to many sectors starting from sector 1 to some sector 52-53. Each sector is having a residential area starting from A-D like 17C. Each residential sector is having its own market. There are two ISBT (Inter State Bus Terminus). One is in Sector 17(For Shimla, Ambala, Sonipath, Delhi route) and other is in sector 43(for Ludhiana, Amritsar, Jammu route). The city is very clean and roads are very nice. There are trees on the both side of the road. There is a separate track for walking people, cycles and rickshaws. One amazing thing, you know, there is not even a single flyover in the city but in spite of that you will never face traffic problem in the city. For this you have to praise the awesome traffic system of Chandigarh. This city has been ranked the best city to live in, by many magazines. The standard of living of this city is very high and as a result living in this city is little bit costly. Most of the people in Chandigarh are government employees, businessmen, or NRIs. All are rich.And no one is miser. You can see almost all luxurious cars there. Audi and Mercedes are common. Every body is having costly handsets and other gadgets. People of Chandigarh are very fashionable. They wear according to the current fashion. No simple hair style and beards will be visible. The city also attracts the drunkards because they can get Beer by spending ½ of bucks then what they pay in other cities. Whiskies, Scorch, Rum and other alcoholic liquid drinks are sometimes more cheaper ( ½ of cost or even less what you pay in other cities). I will rate this city as 9/10 in all aspects.
