Shimla is a very beautiful place located in the ridges of the great
Himalayas. It is one of the most visited tourist destinations in Himachal
Pradesh. Each year, tourists from every part of the world come to have a taste
of the serenity offered by this picturesque land. There is something very
peaceful about the atmosphere of this area. It is a perfect place to come with
your family or friends for a holiday. The climate of this area is extremely
soothing and the winters are quite chilly. There is also a fair amount of
precipitation in Shimla that makes the mountains look surreal.
If you are visiting Shimla with your
family, you must go to the Tara Devi Temple. It is only around eleven
kilometers from the main bus stand. It is a beautiful temple that is located at
the top of green hill. It has a marvelous ambience that is bound to leave a
tranquilizing effect on you. You may not be the religious type but that should
not be a reason not to visit this amazing spot in Shimla. The surroundings of
this temple are extremely serene and the view from the top is just picturesque.
The railway line from Kalka to Shimla
is also very beautiful and a must visit for all tourists. It was in 1906 that
the track came into function. It runs through beautiful landscapes on both
sides and is often greeted by beautiful mountain streams. The engineering of
this track is marvelous and you will be left with awe as you see it yourself.
It would be a treat to make this journey through these tracks. You will be glad
to know that seating arrangements in the train are very comfortable and
spacious. This railway line has been added to the list of world heritage sites
in 2008.
Another excellent place that you may
visit in this part of the country is the Christ Church. It is one of the oldest
churches in India and the second oldest in North India. There have been a lot of
changes made in the church, but the inherent authenticity of the church still
remains intact. The sanctum offers a very calm and quiet ambience and would be
perfect for you if you are looking for serenity. The church is full of
historical and traditional significance and would be a perfect place for you to
take your children to.
Shimla proves
to be the perfect place for those who love to shop around. There are several
shopping destinations in India and one of the best areas is the mall road.
There are all sorts of shops to check out in this region. You can get different
kind of things to buy at amazing prices. There are a lot of options to choose
