About This Location

Terraced Garden in Sector 33, Chandigarh, is a meticulously maintained 10-acre park built in a naturally cascading hillside terrain. The garden is famous for its seasonal chrysanthemum display (November) and marigold-and-petunia colour plantings maintained through winter. Multiple terraced levels connected by stone steps, ornamental water channels, topiary sculptures, and a central fountain make it one of the most geometrically elegant gardens in the Tricity. The hillside elevation offers partial views of the city and Shivalik foothills. The annual Chrysanthemum Show held in November transforms the garden into a sea of colour.
