Foreign traveler Porter has declared Chandigarh India's most well-designed city in a viral Instagram video garnering nearly one lakh views. Visiting India twice this year, Porter praised the city's cleanliness, modern infrastructure, and Sukhna Lake's pristine waters while recommending travelers skip conventional tourist triangles like Delhi-Agra-Jaipur. He highlighted Chandigarh's unique Punjabi-Haryanvi cultural blend, exceptional food, minimal traffic, and absence of excessive honking. Designed by Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier in the 1950s, the planned city features wide boulevards, tree-lined avenues, and organized sectors. Social media users appreciated Porter showcasing India's positive aspects, with some suggesting Chandigarh deserves European-standard tourism recognition alongside Kerala, Sikkim, and Kashmir.
