Commanding a wonderful view of extensive Himalayan snow
ranges to the north-east, and
glittering views of the Doon
Valley and Haridwar to the south, the town presents a
fairyland atmosphere. It is famous for its scenic beauty.
Enchanting view of pine covered hill slopes and snow
capped mountains leave an indelible impression on one's
mind. There are also some interesting walks around
Mussoorie and other attractions here are the Ropeway ride
to Gun Hill - the second largest peak here; Kempty Falls -
the biggest and prettiest waterfall located in a beautiful
valley and surrounded by high mountains.
Mussoorie is conveniently connected by road to Delhi
and other major cities of India
Bulging at its seams with unprecedented
expansion, Shimla retains its colonial heritage,
with grand old buildings, among them are the stately
Viceregal Lodge, charming iron lamp posts and
Anglo-Saxon names. The Mall, packed with shops and
eateries, is the centre of attraction of the town,
and Scandal Point, associated with the former
Maharaja of Patiala's escapades, offers a view of
distant snowclad peaks.
