Advantages: There's nowhere else in India quite like the Ridge
Disadvantages: It's a 15-20 minute attraction - don't plan half a day.

The Centre of the City Shimla is a funny sort of place and it's rather hard to put your finger on what you could really call the 'centre' of the city. Because the city clings precariously to the mountainside, it's not as if there's really a mid-point ... Read review

What's a Mall? When I was a child growing up near Salisbury, the term 'The Mall' had only one meaning for me. It was the city's Old George Mall, for its time a rather exciting pedestrian shopping area. Over time I came to know 'The Mall' as the road ... Read review

Have you Heard of Hadimba? On our first full day in Manali we took a trip to the Rohtang Pass. Since nearly every car in India is a little white Indica, we learned to check each vehicle we used for distinguishing features so we’d be able to find it ( ... Read review

I’m on the Top of the World, Looking Down on Creation I suspect there is a primitive human instinct that drives (many of) us to want to get to the top of big things. If there’s a mountain, we want to climb it – or better still be driven in comfort to ... Read review
