Chandigarh Holidays

Named after the Goddess Chandi, this beautifully planned city is one of finest examples of urban development. A union territory and state capital to both Punjab and Haryana, Chandigarh has a unique amalgamation of Punjabi and Jat culture. Called the City of Beauty, Chandigarh is internationally acclaimed for its architecture and urban planning. The near uniform houses and neatly laid out Sectors are some of the finest examples of the work of French architects Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret. Placed on the foothills of the Shivalik Range, Chandigarh serves as a gateway to the gorgeous hill stations of Haryana and even Himachal. But a town is worth a visit for its own fascinating architecture and vibrant local culture.

Shopping in Chandigarh

Like most big cities and tourist hubs, the choice of shopping arcades and glittering goods in Chandigarh is truly mindboggling. One of the richest cities in India, in terms of per capita income, Chandigarh is a good place to shop for branded goods and high-end designer labels. The shopping complexes at Sectors 17, 22 and 35 are the most popular and the place to head to for the compulsive or irreverent shopper. These markets are especially entertaining in evenings, when the open courtyards are full of families and office goers enjoying an evening amidst the coffee shops, restaurants, pubs and handicraft showrooms! But to truly experience the planned 'bazaars' of Chandigarh, head to the City Center. Well planned and neat, like most of Chandigarh, the City Center is a great place to people watch and shop for Chandigarh souvenirs.

Thousands of people participate in the parades and many contests that make up the Carnival Calendar.

Weather in Chandigarh

Located near the foothills of the Shivalik range of the Himalayas, Chandigarh experiences sub-tropical climate conditions, common to most cities of Northern India. While the summers are hot, the winters are just as cold, with the thermostat swinging from -1 °C at its coldest to 41.2 °C during peak summer. Monsoon showers bring respite but can often be unreliable. But with its proximity to the hills, evenings are always pleasant, you just have to avoid the afternoon sun.

The city sees five distinct seasons: spring, summer, monsoon, autumn and winter. The city blossoms during the spring months of February and March, when the weather is pleasant and temperatures vary between 16 °C to 25 °C (nullmaximum) and 9 °C to 18 °C (nullminimum). Summer begins from April, but peaks in May and June, when it can get as hot as to 40 °C.

The start of the monsoon season towards the end of June and early July does bring some welcome relief, which lasts till September. Rainfall is moderate, though some heavy showers and thunderstorms can be expected. Winter begins from late October. Average temperatures in the winter remain at (nullmax) 7 °C to 15 °C and (nullmin) -2 °C to 5 °C.
