Winter is that time when the allure of the snow clad mountain
range, undulating valleys, fruit laden orchards, gushing waterfalls and lush
plantations is at its peak in Himachal. It is the time when the natural beauty
of this land increases by manifolds, ready to capture the fancy of the
tourists. The Rohtang Pass is already closed for the tourists and Manali and
Shimla receive a generous amount of
snowfall. No doubt ‘Himachal Pradesh India’ is so commonly googled.
During this time of the year, a large number of tourists from all around the world undertake
a trip to this Himalayan kingdom to enjoy the chilly weather and snowfall. Situated
in the lap of Western Himalaya, Himachal Pradesh is an ideal tourist
destination for honeymooners, thrill seekers and family vacationers. In this
blog post, I am going to enlist three most prominent destinations of
Himachal Pradesh.
Shimla
Popularly known as the ‘Queen of the hill stations’, Shimla is a famous destination in
the state of Himachal Pradesh. This small hamlet in Himachal gained after the
British made it their ‘Summer Capital’. Besides gorgeous sights of nature,
there are various Catholic churches designed in neo-Gothic architecture that captures your attention.
Manali
A favorite destination for honeymooners, Manali is famous
for its breathtaking snow capped peaks, verdant
valleys and winter sports. There are several Hindu temples and Buddhist monasteries as well which adds to the tourism
aspect of this town.
Dharamshala
Located in the beautiful town of Himachal Pradesh,
Dharamshala is widely famous for its large
Tibetan community under the control of the
Dalai Lama. While the upper part of Dharamshala, also known as McLeod
Ganj, is home to the Tibetan community, the lower part abounds with government
offices, schools, local hospital and a few tea gardens.
