Cosily snugged between Himalayan Peaks & Zanskar Valley and home to fabulous hill stations such as the likes of Shimla, Manali, Dharamshala, Lahaul, McLeod Ganj, Kangra Valley, Kinnaur Valley, Chail, Narkanda and a lot more, Himachal Pradesh is the among the most visited and undoubtedly most featured [in the movies] mountainous state of India. Spectral, awe-inspiring mountains, rugged terrains, idyllic villages peeping straight out of a canvas, apple and cheery orchards, deep bowl-shaped wooded valleys, deodar & pine forests, a rich floral & faunal wildlife and above all a well laid network of roads and highways that make the region easily accessible from every corner of the country, all put together make Himachal Pradesh a much favoured hill station destination with locals and foreigners alike.
Himachal Pradesh is a beautiful hill state in northern India, nestled in the western Himalayas. The state is landlocked with the Tibetan plateau to the east, Jammu and Kashmir to the north, and Punjab to the west. However, the state stands apart from its neighbours in terms of its sheer topographic diversity and breath taking pristine natural beauty. From vast tracts of high-altitude, Trans-Himalayan desert to dense green deodar forests, from apple orchards to cultivated terraces, from snow-capped high Himalayan mountain ranges to snow fed lakes and gushing rivers, Himachal has all of this and more.
