Himachal Pradesh is a tiny hill state whose pleasant summers make it a popular holiday spot. The Raj still lingers in Shimla, the state capital and former summer capital during British rule.

Kullu-Manali are best neighbouring holidays spots, surrounded by pine covered hills and lush meadows. Himachal has, in addition to popular resort towns, a series of secluded hill retreats ideal for interested anglers, trekkers and those wanting a quiet getaway.

Many of these include:- Chail, Chamba, Chamunda Devi, Chinpurni, Dalhousie, Dharamshala, Kasauli, Keylong, Khajjiar, Kinnaur, Kufri, Kullu, Lahaul, Manali, Naldehra, Nagar, Panota Shaib, Parwanoo, Renuka ji, Rohtang Pass, Shimla, and Spiti.
