ABOUT SHIMLA AND ITS MOST ATTRACTIVE TOURIST DESTINATIONS


A TOUR TO SHIMLA

Shimla is nice place to visit, during the summer season because it is my personal experience. We went
there during my summer vocation . We went there for one week because there is many
places to see. There we never realised  hot in any place, what a calm and beautiful place it is. Around
this place we saw green hill and fresh envionment. we arrived there by train, we came from long
distance so we had done all arrangement before we came here directly. There we stay in hotel,
where they have provided vechicles and their  best duty .




I went there first time. Shimla is the capital of the state Himachal Prades of India. Shimla is also
known for its cool environment and for its victorian architecture, which reflects certain mall
and ridge. There we saw unbiqutious footbridge around the main road, which is made with wood.
There we met mostly Pahadi people and some other as Sindhi and Punjabi but all of them can
speak Hindi or English so,we got chance to involve with them.


There are many theories about its name . According to mythology this name originated from
Shyamali Devi , a re - incarnation of fearsome Goddes Ma Kali
There we saw buildings of victorion style ,which reflects Britishers connection. In  the lower slopes
we found market and resturants  , which decorates beautifully and the traffic is banned there from
the historic central area as mall , where cart road runs to the mall.
The North ridge of the mall  from where we crossed is a good place of seven majestic hills of Shimala.  Near this we saw the famous baazar of Shimla  Lakkar bazaar from where we brought
some handicraft and souvenirs.


Place which attracts  us  in Shimla is The Mall, Jakhu Temple , Dorje Drag Monastery, The Ridge,
Christ Church, Lower Bazaar viceregal Lodge, Hip Hip Hurray Amusement park , Tara Devi,
Museum/ Gallaries (state of Museam , Photo Art Gallaries) and Sankat Mochan Temple.
