|

Arrive
Delhi and Proceed to Shimla 8 Hrs drive.
Shimla, the capital city of Himachal Pradesh, lies about
343 km from Delhi at an altitude of 2,213 meters above
sea level. Before the British discovered it in 1819, Shimla
was a small village that was part of the Nepalese kingdom.
In 1830, the |
 |
|
local Raja was persuaded
to part with the land by the British and the settlement became
the subcontinent’s most fashionable summer resort. Shimla
was declared the summer capital of India in 1864. After India’s
independence, Shimla became the capital of Punjab till 1966,
when it came under Himachal Pradesh.
The summers in Shimla are quit pleasant as the maximum temperature
rarely crosses 25°C. Winters are cold and Shimla experiences
quite a heavy snowfall. If you are among those who |
 |
want to escape from the scorching heat of the plains,
Shimla would be the ideal getaway. But for those who love
snow, a visit in winters can be an exciting experience.
