Shimla has been blessed with all the natural bounties which one can think of.It has got a scenic location, it is surrounded by green hills with snow capped peaks.The spectacular cool hills accompanied by the structures made during the colonial era creates an aura which is very different from other hill.

Bulging at its seams with unprecedented expansion, Shimla retains its colonial heritage, with grand old buildings, among them are the stately Viceregal Lodge, charming iron lamp posts and Anglo-Saxon names. The Mall, packed with shops and eateries, is the centre of attraction of the town, and Scandal Point, associated with the former Maharaja of Patiala's escapades, offers a view of distant snow clad peaks.

Shimla is ideally located, and though there is an air service to the town, it is best reached by road that takes in the charms of the Himalayan countryside at its best. There is a sense of nostalgia about Shimla, with its old bungalows and their gabled roofs and beautiful gardens.

It is cold and chilly in winters with the season around Christmas receiving snowfall.Shimla can be visited throughout the year with every season having its own charm.Another specialty of Shimla are the apple orchids.

Kufri (16 km), Mashobra (10 km), Fagu (22 km), Chail (43 km) are some of the destinations where an excursion can be planned during one’s visit to Shimla
