 A quaint little hill train
chugs upinto the Shivalik foothills, over dramatic loops and high arched bridges to the
hill resort of Shimla (2130 M) - the capital of the mountain state of Himachal. Shimla's
salubrious climate, easy accessibility and numerous attractions have made it one of the
most popular hill stations in northern India. The splendid views of the snow-clad ranges
of the Himalayas, fine walks through oak and flowering rhododendron, enchanting resorts
within easy reach, golf at Naldehra and skiing at Kufri and Narkanda make Shimla an
attractive destination throughout the year.
