Shimla, known as the Queen of Hills, is 7,250 feet in the majestic northwestern Himalayas. This picturesque Town is surrounded by dense pine and deodar forests, offering stunning views of the Greater Himalayas. Shimla’s name is derived from Shyamala Devi, a form of the Hindu Goddess Kali, and it gained prominence in 1819 when the British, seeking relief from the sweltering Indian summers, made it their summer capital in 1939. Shimla is not just a retreat from the heat; it’s a hub for adventure enthusiasts. Trekking and skiing opportunities abound at Narkanda and Kufri. The Naldehra Golf Course, nestled amidst thick forests, is emerging as a major attraction, drawing golfers and nature lovers alike. For those with a penchant for shopping, Shimla does not disappoint. The bustling Lakkar Bazaar is a treasure trove of cultural handicrafts, handloom items, and wooden artefacts. It’s also known for its various dry fruits and natural herbs, which are sought after for their medicinal properties. One of Shimla’s most distinguished accommodations is the Shimla British Resort, a heritage property epitomising colonial elegance. Established in the late 19th century, the resort boasts Scottish and British architectural designs, with cottages dating back to 1893. Initially built by a British engineer, the resort has changed hands over the years, including a period of ownership by the Nawab of Karachi. Today, it offers an exquisite blend of historic charm and modern luxury, with rooms overlooking dense cedar forests. The resort is a short distance from key landmarks, including Mall Road, just a stone’s throw away, and the iconic Victory Tunnel, only 2 km from the property. Despite its seclusion, it remains conveniently close to transportation hubs, 22 km from Shimla Airport and just 1 km from Shimla Railway Station. With its period furniture, crackling fireplaces, and a rooftop restaurant offering panoramic views, the Shimla British Resort provides guests with a luxurious retreat that captures the romance and adventure of the Himalayan landscape while providing a glimpse into Shimla’s colonial past.
