Shimla & Snowfall – don’t miss this chance

It’s a holiday season and you cannot really afford to miss the charm of refreshing winters. The fun of holidaying is best enjoyed when you are in any of the enchanting hill stations like Shimla in India during this time. This beautiful hilly town is right now covered with thick, pure white layers of snow – a delightful sight for both the tourists as well as the locals. The mercury has gone down considerably, but there are enough reasons for the people to enjoy this chill and cold. It is this time only when you can play with snow and feel the warmth of being in the company of your loved one. It’s your first honeymoon or a leisure trip to the city, an experience of joy will remain totally the same.

Shimla, the attractive capital city of the state of Himachal Pradesh, is formed of many connecting hills and ridges. Some of the popular hills of this elegant town are Prospect Hill, Summer Hill, Observatory Hill, Elysigim Hill and Jakhu. The mesmerizing quiet ambiance of this hilly town fetched it a title of “Summer Capital of India” in the time of British rule. Spreading across 12 kilometers long ridge at an elevation of 2,421 meters from the sea level, today this picturesque town has become a preferred destination for holidaymakers.

Visits to some of the famous tourist attractions in Shimla must not be missed by any chance. Do take some time out to explore its Himachal State Museum, Chadwick Falls, Viceregal Lodge and ice skating rink. You would thoroughly enjoy a walk in its mall area too. However, as the town is experiencing snowfall, you are recommended to pay a visit to Kufri, the ideal destination to have fun with snow. Skiing and sledging will be very enjoyable. Don’t worry about anything as traveling will be easy and smooth from one point to the other in the city.
