Introduction

The first urban city planned in India, Chandigarh is the only city in India to be the capital of two states, namely, Punjab and Haryana. As a matter of fact, Chandigarh is now considered to be governed under federal law and hence is given the strata of a Union Territory. With around 600 plus factories located in Chandigarh itself, a lot of businessmen and workers have started residing in Chandigarh. To spend a quality family time and relax oneself from the daily stresses of work, here are a few places one can travel to by taxi service in Chandigarh.

·         Morni Hills

 

The only hill station in Haryana, in the Panchkula District, Morni Hills is a famous tourist attraction near Chandigarh. Located just 45 kilometers away from the main city of Chandigarh, Morni Hills is a common picnic spot. This hill station is surrounded by a lake, which is considered to be holy by the locals. The Himalayas in the background and the green landscape everywhere make Morni Hills a serene and relaxing place for everyone. You can enjoy trekking and spotting rare species of birds at Morni Hills. Taxi service in Chandigarh with Chiku Cab is the best way to commute to Morni Hills from Chandigarh.

·         Parwanoo

 

Situated at just 30 kilometers from Chandigarh, Parwanoo is a family picnic spot that is blessed by Mother Nature. The best part about Parwanoo is that you have to take a three-and-a-half-kilometer cable ride amongst hills and valleys to reach the destination. Timber Trail is the most opted picnic hub in Parwanoo. A blessing in disguise for the adventure lovers, and a calm and luxurious spot for the peace seekers, Parwanoo is indeed one of the best places to visit around Chandigarh.

·         Kasauli

 

While traveling from Chandigarh to Shimla, Kasauli is the mid-point between Kalka and Shimla. It is considered to be the most happening tourist and picnic spot for people traveling from Chandigarh and Panchkula. Kasauli is approximately 50 kilometers from Chandigarh and is the hot spot for adventure and sports lovers. The Sanawar Nature Camp in Kasauli is the best place to spend a day doing high-risk adventure sports under professional guidance.

·         Barog

 

Again, situated on the Shimla Kalka Highway, Barog is still not a properly explored town near Chandigarh. Because of this, it is not very populated by tourists making it an ideal location to go for a relaxing weekend. It is seen in history that Royal families used to have their lavish lunch at Barog while traveling by trains. The most haunted place in India, the Barog Tunnel is also situated in Barog. This hill station is located at a distance of roughly 60 kilometers from Chandigarh.

·         Solan 

 

Solan is also called the Mushroom Capital of India, as it is well-known for its high mushroom plantation. It is a pleasure to the eyes of everyone to see the beautiful landscape of Solan located in Himachal Pradesh. Along with mushrooms, even tomatoes are grown on a large scale here giving this town another name of The City of Red Gold. Do visit the Jatoli Shiv Temple and the Shoolini Devi Temple to seek their blessings when in Solan. For beer lovers, the Solan Brewery is a must halt.
