the summer capital of the British India, is situated at a height
of 2,196 meters. While the British have left, the echoes linger
on. Today, its well developed facilities, easy accessibility
and many attractions make it one of India's most popular hill
resorts in the Himalayan lower ranges. It is surrounded by pine,
cedar, oak and rhododendron forests.
Towards the north lie the snow-covered high ranges, while the
valleys below hold streams and swaying fields. Within the town
are splendid colonial edifices, quaint cottages and charming
walks. You can go shopping on the fashionable Mall, visit its
neo-Gothic churches, the grand former Vice-regal Lodge or the
cemeteries.
Places to see around Shimla include- Mashobra. Bekhaltv road,
camp sites and the Golf Course at Naldehra, Tattapani, the Shiv-Parvati
Caves, The Kufri Slopes, etc. |
