(TRAVPR.COM) INDIA - October 25th, 2019 - A Himachal Tour Promises a Heavenly Time Amidst the Hills,Shimla & Manali

While planning for a refreshing weekend getaway from Delhi among the hills, we came across this slightly goofy fact -almost all the hill-stations around Delhi and in the rest of the country are dubbed as 'Queen of the Hills'. They have other names as well but this is a common moniker that comes with most hill stations almost as a freebie that is intended to spike up their unique selling points. We did not spend too much time bothering about the reason as the saying of an illustrious British came to our rescue: 'What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.'

This holds true for a tour to Shimla, the capital of Himachal Pradesh and the summer capital for the British in the days of the Raj! A pleasure then as it is a pleasure now; Shimla is the perfect holiday-in-the-hills weekend getaway par excellence with the old world charm hanging like a mist with the sweet fragrance of yore. With an abundance of hotels in Shimla, you will not have to worry about your staying worries. There is Shimla hotel to suit everyone's tastes.

Here are some of the interesting things you can do during your Shimla tour in the winter:

i. Enjoying snow sports: Shimla is one of the finest destinations in the country for winter sports. It, therefore, goes without saying that thousands of tourists who brave the cold to venture to this part of the country get their value for money. Kufri is the best place for enjoying snow sports. Games like ice skating, roller skating and skiing are played with enthusiasm by young and old alike. Don't get the impression that Shimla becomes icy cold during December or January. It doesn't get as cold as places like Jammu and the chill here is pretty acceptable, provided that you carry all your woolens & jackets.

ii. Climbing the Taradevi: During the Shimla tour, you must also climb up the hills to reach the Taradevi Temple. It is an excellent tourist spot owing to its top-of-the-hill panorama and the spiritual touché. The place is enveloped by forests and thus makes for an excellent picnic spot as well.

iii. Hiking or walking along the woods: Under Shimla tour package, you can also enjoy activities like hiking, bird-watching, sunset-watching or simply taking an indolent walk by the woods & orchards. The winter would really add to that element of mystique with its smoky fog!
