Jalandhar is an awfully drab city, in all honesty. Well know for Football Chowk and the myriad of sports equipment manufacturing plants, one would find themselves out of things to do – as a tourist – within the first three days or so. As a resident, the town will be teeming with gossip and old wives’ tales, if you know where to put your ear on the ground, so to speak.

It gets awfully cold in winter. Summers are always torrid, with temperatures greater than 35 degrees Celsius, so pack clothes accordingly. Within the first year, if not earlier, you will run out of things to explore lest you have friends. In the case if the former, do stock up on books, music, and film and always keep on hand all ways of accessing said forms of media, whether conventional or otherwise. A stable internet connection will be a blessing you will never forfeit.

The city is a pleasant place and the pace of life, as opposed to metropolitans is balanced. It is also a safe place and one cannot forget the feeling of being here. It is also reportedly has the largest number of hospitals in Asia. The city radiates positivity in addition to being known as a hub for sports goods.

The Jalandhar city is not a metro city of India, but it is one of the modern cities of the country. It is called sports of the country because it has many sports equipment manufacturing industries, which are providing livelihood to many local labourers and migrants as well. This city has its mythological history also, because of Devi talab Temple. This city has many schools and colleges which are providing globally accepted degrees. There are many malls, cinemas and shopping centres where teenagers can enjoy their free time.

The public transportation facilities aren’t great here. They should come with a car. Dining out is in the city is good but not as great as many metropolitan cities maybe but North Indian food would would be available at local restaurants and street food is also of good quality it’s overall a place to just visit for a few days.
