Overview:

If you want to feel the earth in its purest form, plan a trip to the stunningly beautiful town of Dalhousie, a serene retreat, far away from the polluted city life and get healed! Sitting quietly on the western edge of the Dhauladhar mountain range, the town was set up in 1854 by the British governor-general Lord Dalhousie.

Tranquil and secluded, the hill town wins over the tourists with its old-world charm. Least affected by the flamboyance of the outside world, Dalhousie serves as a quiet gateway for the newly-weds and the leisure vacationers. Thick woods of pine and deodar trees, snow-dipped mountain peaks create a picture-perfect setting for some romantic coziness. Savor the greenery all around and recharge the lost energy!

Just walking on the pine-covered slopes where the cool breeze softly fondles the cheeks act as a refreshment for the cluttered mind. Birds chirping happily, the freshness of alpine vegetation, the sight of the buildings belonging to colonial era with low roofed stalls and innumerable picnic spots fuel the imagination of the budding poet and writer.

A holiday break in Dalhousie is refreshing, where the presence of nature is felt at each and every turn, where every sound is filled with purity and where every image is soul-lifting!
