Dalhousie
is a quiet town, with a sense of enchantment. This hill station spreads
over five low-level hills at the western edge of the Dhauladhar range,
just east of the Ravi River. The picturesque town is interspersed with
the colonial-era buildings, low roofed stalls and hotels. The
pine-covered slopes around it are intersected with paths and treks,
which are ideal for short undemanding walks.
The
gateway to the Chamba Valley, this colonial town was established in 1854
by the British governor-general Lord Dalhousie. Covering an area of 14
sq.-km and surrounded by alpine vegetation, Dalhausie has charming
architecture and panoramic views of both plains and the whitecapped
views of the mountainous ranges.
