Chandigarh: The City of Peace

I took a little trip to Chandigarh a few weeks ago. It was an exciting spontaneous weekend for me. I dropped everything, grabbed my camera and a novel and headed for the nearest bus station.

The month is almost coming to and end and I just want to share some pictures for you. Enjoy them.

It was refreshing to see these ducks come out of the water and mingle with the tourists. 

(That's me, smiling like a mad curious child.)

The following photographs were taken at Rock Garden, Chandigarh.

This was my favorite part of the whole maze of stone. For a moment I felt like I was in Cambodia.

One thing I noticed about this little figures is that all of them had sad, melancholic faces. It was as if they were mourning for the living. To be honest I felt a little uncomfortable standing alone in the middle with hundreds of them watching me silently.

These last few pictures were taken at Sukhna lake, a few miles away from Rock Garden. It started raining the moment I reached there and I was surprised to find out that the lake had almost dried up. Anyways the weather was nice and breezy and I sat there for a good hour or so just watching people go by.
