The industrial capital of Punjab, Ludhiana is a prime example of India's manufacturing capability but also its diversity of culture. Ludhiana, popularly known as the "Manchester of India," accounts for a large share of India's textile & hosiery industries as well as bicycle manufacturing, but it is also emerging as a hub for education, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
Ludhiana and the hum of factories can be heard from every corner of the city and the hustle and bustle of marketplaces can be felt everywhere, especially when exploring Ludhiana's vast array of experiences - historic gurdwaras, colonial institutions, street food, modern shopping malls, and traditional bazaars.
