Top 10 Things to do Good for Kids in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh

August 11, 2021 Venice Greaves

Snow-capped Himalayan peaks and green pastures surround Shimla, the capital of Himachal Pradesh. Enjoy a heritage walk through Shimla’s Victorian-era architecture, labyrinthine bazaars and lengthy pedestrian shopping mall. Don’t cause too much trouble taking in the town from Scandal Point, a large, open square; keep in mind that Shimla was a retreat destination for Mahatma Gandhi, who frequented a Georgian mansion in Shimla’s suburbs from the mid-1930s to '40s.

Indian Institute of Advanced Study

Reviewed By jimjimmy49 - Patiala, India

Great architecture, kids enjoyed alot due to its resemblance with hogward magic school, but truly a marvel of Scottish architecture. This is Indian Institute of Advance Studies aka viceregal lounge( British era name) that selects only few scholars in the field of humanity and social sciences who reside there and that too without any faculty ,for independent research. Building is partially allowed for common people with 200 rs tickets for adults and 100 for kids .Only 3 halls can be visited , most lavish is the hallway near stairs , wood work is just amazing and so massive .Garden and outskirts are so beautifully created that features this place so distinct so one can easily believe the place is not in India or magical like hogwards of India. A Must visit place that is amazing for kids as well as adults..
