India's most planned and cleanest city, designed by Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier post-independence. The Capitol Complex (UNESCO), Nek Chand's extraordinary Rock Garden (made entirely from industrial waste), Sukhna Lake, and Rose Garden are iconic.

Honest take for Jul: Monsoon season — heavy rainfall expected. Good for nature lovers, but outdoor travel can be challenging. (high crowds.)
