The Rock Garden of Chandigarh is a sprawling sculpture garden created by Nek Chand using discarded materials like broken ceramics, bottles, and industrial waste. Visitors wander through a maze of interlinked courtyards, each filled with imaginative figures of dancers, animals, and abstract forms. This unique attraction showcases creativity and recycling, offering a surreal experience that contrasts with the city's planned architecture. It's a must-see for art lovers and anyone curious about outsider art.
