Open Air Cafes For City

Chandigarh Administration has planned some new and innovative initiatives for improving tourism facilities in the city. On the recommendation of Tourism Department, Adviser to the Administrator UT, Pradip Mehra has approved the various initiatives focused on highlighting Chandigarh as a tourist destination.
Setting up of Open Air Cafes, installing hanging baskets, locating of Kiosks to facilitate residents and visitors and aesthetically designed tourism signages are amongst the initiatives proposed.
Signages at various levels would be improved on modern international lines instead of conventional and could also be outsourced.Open Air Cafes would be aesthetically set up, as such cafes are popular world wide and could be used in winters in afternoons and during summers in evening. They would also add to the beauty of the City Beautiful.
A new experiment has already been tried to adorn street light poles with hanging baskets as an added feature. It is proposed to ask the Horticulture Department to take action accordingly.
Director Museum has been requested to incorporate displays of the exhibition on Brasilia and Le-Havre being held in Chandigarh Museum in the Museum Display. Small Kiosks with magazines, newspapers/maps and information guides could be set in various locations in the city to facilitate residents and visitors.
Portable Toilets would be displayed at suitable locations by Municipal Corporation. A Battery operated toy train for young and old alike would be operated for visitors in the Sector 17 Plaza for adding attraction for visitors and residents alike.
Electronic Display Boards would be set up in the city with LCD and modern displays with the help of MC. Certain important locations in the city from the tourism point of view would have signage boards which would be aesthetically designed with information relating to the particular site for the visitors.
