A Public Garden With An Important Public Message

In focus, of this story is the Rock Garden of Chandigarh, India.

I visited this garden a long time back (in 2014).

However, the memory of it is still fresh. Why? Because of the combination of manmade art and natural beauty that this unique one-of-a-kind garden provides.

The exhibition area of Rock Garden is divided into three different phases that have different types of installations and embellishments in them. Each phase deals with different types of installations, and walking through them is a true delight.
