Description
Punjab is a northern Indian state known for its rich culture, agricultural significance, and historic heritage. It is often referred to as the 'Granary of India' due to its extensive wheat production and overall contribution to the country's food supply. The state is characterized by fertile plains and rivers, with the Sutlej River being the most prominent.
The capital city of Punjab is Chandigarh, which is a union territory also serving as the capital for the neighboring state of Haryana. Chandigarh is known for its modern architecture and urban planning, designed by the French architect Le Corbusier. Punjab is also home to several important cities such as Amritsar, which houses the Golden Temple, a sacred site for Sikhs and a major spiritual destination.
Punjab has a diverse population with a majority of Sikhs, followed by Hindus and Muslims. The state is known for its vibrant festivals, including Baisakhi, which celebrates the harvest, and Lohri, marking the end of winter. Punjabi cuisine, rich in flavors and diversity, includes popular dishes like butter chicken, sarson da saag, and makki di roti, making it a culinary hub in India.
