    You could start early at Mansa Devi Temple for a sunrise view of the valley, then head to Pinjore Gardens for a relaxed stroll in the late afternoon. The gardens’ terrace offers a quiet spot for a coffee break with a view of the surrounding hills. After that, a short drive to the Rock Garden in Chandigarh gives a quirky, intimate vibe that many couples enjoy. If you’re looking for a place to unwind afterward, Tulip Inn Zirakpur is just under 8 km away. Does anyone know if the gardens have a light show in the evenings?
