Located at about 2400 metres above sea level in the south west range of the Himalayas, Shimla is one of the most visited tourist destinations in India.

Incredibly famous for its unparalleled natural beauty and scenic terrains, Shimla is also home to many exquisite architectural marvels built during the time of British rule.
