salubrious Rose Garden, the Leisure Valley, the Lake,
the tree lined avenues or the open Piazza, all provide
an invigorating experience.
The city centre or 'Seventeen', as it is popularly called,
offers an organised arrangement of square building blocks
and open spaces. The Piazza livens up in the afternoon
with the office crowds out to recharge themselves. In
the evenings shoppers and tourists, enjoying an icecream
or popcorns, sit on the steps of the "dove of peace" spout,
where water cascades down from one level to another in
geometrically shaped tanks, xmidst the delightful play
of colourful lights.

The Leisure Valley, the Fitness Trails,
the Botanical and terrace gardens, the hibiscus and topiary
parks and other gardens along the green belt , that pass
through the city,
offer a quiet retreat at all hours of the day, orchestrating
life's subtler impulses and heightening the spiritual
experience and contribute to its serene character.
Even a drive through the city is a lively experience
with its pleasant sites, green rolling belts, attractively
designed facades of residential areas, the landscaped
round- abouts with their own structural elements, and
floral layouts and, of course, the majestic vow of the
Shivalik hill range.
