  • 5Best way to learn about Shimla.

    Our guide Mr Sanjay was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information about Shimla and its history. It was good to get information about buildings etc because without a guide you would not learn about Shimla. Mr Sanjay was at our meeting place as planned and he certainly filled the 3 hours with information and walking.

About Shimla

Shimla, capital of Himachal Pradesh, is a hill station in the Himalayan foothills, built along a ridge by the British as their summer capital.

Shimla stretches along a ridge at about 2,200 metres in the foothills of the Himalaya and from 1864 served as the summer capital of British India. Colonial buildings in stone and timber still line its slopes: Christ Church, a pale yellow neo-Gothic church overlooking the open space of the Ridge, the Gaiety Theatre, and the Viceregal Lodge, a grey stone mansion in Elizabethan style that is now an institute for advanced study.

Top-ranked sights in Shimla: Mall Road, Jakhu Temple (Jakhoo Temple).
