Create Beautiful Memories With A Holiday To Shimla

Shimla is a charming, captivating and quaint hill station nestled in North India in the state of Himachal Pradesh. When one thinks of a holiday to Shimla, what leaps to the mind are coniferous trees, scenic hilly view points, ancient churches & forgotten cottages, snows & sunsets, sprawling apple orchards and open alleys & lanes.

Shimla has a rich history since it served as the summer capital during the British Raj. The churches & old buildings that still stand firm & silent, painfully remind us of the good, old days of the bygone era. Shimla’s legacy, heritage & culture have lots to offer to a tourist. During your Shimla tour, you can picnic on the picturesque hilly spots, explore the town’s history in museums & churches, visit the famous Hindu temples, dig into some local shopping browsing through antiques & embroideries and even spend your time golfing, skiing, horse riding and hiking.

At Mall Raod, you will find exciting activities to keep you glued including great restaurants. The Ridge is another popular tourist spot you must not miss.

Where to Stay: At Shimla, you can easily find a hotel of your choice- both the luxurious ones and the affordable budgeted ones. You can also buy a Shimla tour package or a holiday to Shimla package, inclusive of Shimla sightseeing, to enjoy a hassle-free tip into this mountainous gateway.
