Lazy Days Homestay – Shimla
Shimla
Shimla, capital city of Himachal is one of the most popular hill destinations in North India. Surrounded by dense pine forests, it is best explored on foot. Traffic is banned from the central part of town, so walking is pleasant. Take a leisurely walk at the Mall and shop for woollens, wooden stuff, carpets etc; stroll along the meandering roads to the meadows, trek in the local mountains or ice skate during winters. From mid-July to mid-September Shimla is frequently wreathed in cloud, and from January it often gets a carpeting of snow. November is cold but clear with a distant horizon of Himalayan peaks sometimes visible from The Ridge.
