Geography & terrain
Terraced Garden lies in the Chandigarh district of Chandigarh, 3 km from the Capitol and 250 km from Delhi — the stepped garden of the region, its 1980s-era terraces, the lawns and the quiet set on the Shivalik foothills.
History & culture
The garden's story runs with the 1980s creation era — the stepped garden of the 1980s-era terraces and the 1980s-era plan of the city parks, with the garden's modern role as the leisure stop of the Chandigarh circuit and the home of the terraces and the lawn decks and the 2000s-era walks; the garden's history of the 2010s-era restorations and the morning life, gives the Terraced Garden its stepped character.
