Tourists Highlight :  Shimla :  In the days before independence,  Shimla was the most important British hill station, and in the hot season became the ‘summer capital’ of India.  Shimla was first discovered by the British in 1819. At an altitude of 2130 metres,  Shimla sprawls along a crescent - shaped ridge with its suburbs clinging to the slopes.      The Mall is lines with stately English looking houses bearing strangely displaced  English names.  Shimlas English flavour is enforced by buildings like Christ church which dates from 1857,  Gorton castle and the former Viceroy Lodge (Rashtrapati Niwas)  on observatory Hill which dates from 1888.  Lajpat tai, chowk is better known as Kiplings’s scandal corners.   Rashtrapati Niwas :  About one Km west of the centre of Shimla on Observatory  Hill, this was formerly the residence of the British viceroy.  State Museum.  An hour pleasant walk down from the church on the Mall.  This nice little museum has a modest collection of stone statues from different places in Himachal pradesh.  Jakhu Temple :  Dedicated to the monkey god, Hanuman this temple is at an altitude of 2455 metres near the highest point of the Shimla ridge.  It offers a fine view over the surroundings valleys, out to the snow capped peaks, and over Shimla itself.   Walks :   Apart from a promenade along The Mall and the walk to the Jakhu temple, there are a great number of interesting walks around Shimla.   Wildflower Hall : on the road to Kufri 13 km from Shimla and at 2593 metres, this was the former Residence of Indian Commander - in chief Lord Kitchener.  T Kufri :  this is the best known ski resort in himachal pradesh, 16 km from Shimla at 2501 metres.  The skiing season is at its peak in January and February.
