Top 10 Must-Visit Places in Chandigarh for a Weekend Getaway

Chandigarh is nestled in the foothills of the Shivalik Range of hills, and it’s not just a city; it’s an experience. If you’re planning a weekend getaway, you’re in luck. Chandigarh is perfect for an escape with its ideal serene parks, modern architecture and scenic beauty. Katto are your trusted partners for a hassle-free ride around the city, irrespective of your status, whether you are a local or a tourist. 

Whether you travel in our Mini, SUV, or Sedan cabs, you will be comfortable travelling to these top ten Tricity areas in 2024.

  1. Sukhna Lake: Sukhna Lake, a man-made reservoir, is offset to the hills and thus begins your weekend with a little more calm. If you like a cool breeze and a reflection of the setting sun on the water, this would be a peaceful place to go in the morning or evening.
    So, while you’re here, imagine taking a pleasant boat ride.
  2. Rock Garden: Probably the famous Rock Garden of Sukhna Lake, just a stone’s throw away, is from Nek Chand.
    It’s a whimsical labyrinth of sculptures made from recycled materials whipped up by the creative powers of one mind that’s just the right size for a leisurely wander or snap photos of something different.
  3. Elante Mall: Elante Mall is the best place for people who like a ‘blend’ of retail therapy and relaxation. It offers everything from high-end stores to local boutiques and an outstanding food court.
  4. Sector 17 Plaza (Don’t Miss the Underpass): When you visit Chandigarh, you must stroll through the iconic Sector 17 Plaza. Enveloped in History, the plaza is in the heart of the city’s commercial hub, a great place for a visit in the evening, and now, with the construction of the newly built underpass, the plaza has a modern feel.
  5. Zakir Hussain Rose Garden: Spread over 30 acres of land, Zakir Hussain Rose Garden is a place for nature lovers. It is a colourful escape with more than 1,600 species of roses.
    What if you were walking in rows of gorgeous flowers that smelled so good you just had to take a moment and breathe in the fresh air?
  6. Pinjore Gardens: Pinjore Gardens in Panchkula may be a little further away, but getting some lovely pictures on the way is worth the mile. With its Mughal-style layout, this garden has the perfect mix of History and nature.
  7. Japanese Garden: A relaxing, Zen-like experience awaits you in Sector 31 at the Japanese Garden. It’s a peaceful retreat to the city with complete pagodas, meditation corners and water bodies.
  8. Timber Trail: If you are adventurous, the Timber Trail in Parwanoo offers a thrilling experience. Take the cable car up, and you will see spectacular views of the hills.
  9. Chandigarh’s Government Museum and Art Gallery: This museum is a gold mine for history buffs and art lovers. It presents an educational but fascinating experience through ancient manuscripts, Gandhara sculptures, and contemporary art.
  10. ChattBir Zoo: This 202-acre safari is a family favourite and is located a short distance from Chandigarh. Visitors can see lions, tigers, and other animals
