                                                        Shimla
 
 The most sought romantic destination by the honeymooners, Shimla with a ravish display of rustic beauty and relaxation flashes all the glamour of a perfect honeymooning spot. Impressed with its eye-catching natural prettiness and scenic splendor, the British called it the “Summer Capital of India”. The colonial style buildings and bungalows reflect every bit of the English culture and architecture.  
 
 During warm summer months, Shimla bewitches the onlookers with splendorous natural vistas that vary from grassy dunes, lustrous green meadows, pretty brooks and sweet smelling deodars. It is a perfect gateway for enjoying a quiet and tranquil holiday gazing at the incredible wonders of nature. But the same place has an entire different story to tell in the chilling winter. By the end of December, the entire city is snow-fed and the temperature reaches sub-zero. Ice skating is the famous winter sport here.
 
 Shimalites clad themselves in their colourful traditional costumes and their mystic accessories, beautifully present their local dance forms in the Shimla Summer festival which is held during the high peak season.

 Shimla, noted for its unhurried pace of life, calm and serene environs and fresh, unpolluted air, offers a welcoming change to the city dwellers and also help honeymooners to re-capture each other’s hearts and return home with everlasting memories of honeymooning experience.
