Shimla, the state capital of Himachal Pradesh, is a city with stunning mountain views, magical snowy winters,

lovely toylike houses, and a rich Himachali culture. The sunsets here warm your heart, while the adventure activities nearby numb your senses.

Even after being a popular tourist destination,

Shimla retains a certain allure that draws visitors from all over the world,

sometimes simply for the sake of connectivity, and other times for a special link.

As human beings, we find ourselves leaning back to history and what was left behind to find our purpose in the present life.

Travellers adore Shimla for a variety of reasons, but one of the most common is its Victorian architecture.

The city is dotted with churches and colonial lodges, which only add to the view of mountains and greenery.

It's true that Shimla can get a little crowded at times. Thankfully, the villages surrounding it have an excellent off beat experience as well.
