Enjoy Your Honeymoon in Shimla

It was Diwali... And I was in a complete fix. Where do I go? Should I go to a hill station or a beach resort? North or south? Should I plan the trip on my own or go in for a package?

So, my wife and I discussed quite a few options and then finally decided on our dream spot, Shimla (originally called "Simla"). Shimla is a beautiful and pristine hill station, located in north-west Himalayas of India and is a popular honeymoon spot for newly weds.

We begun our train journey from Delhi to Kolka (a small station). Here we got ourselves comfortable in fun looking toy train. The journey is 90km long, which includes 100+ tunnels (in which 1 tunnel was almost 1 kilometer long) in Barog and uses 500+ bridges to reach Shimla. It's a once in a lifetime experience!.

At Barog, the train halts for 10 minutes and it was good experience to see the staff serve breakfast, while other young couples were chugging along hand-in-hand. As I mentioned earlier Shimla and its neighbours, are quite the destination spot for a lot of couples.

We finally reached Shimla station, and the moment we got off the train, we could see a swarm of kashmiri potters. We got one and he guided us through the platform and found us a cab. Finally, we reached our destination, our hotel, Kufri Holiday Resorts. After resting in the hotel we went to the scandal point where the guide told us that one of the officer's wife ran away with an Indian prince! The next couple of days, we spent on "Mall Road", where we shopped and generally freaked out. In the 3 days that we stayed the hotel staff was very friendly and amicable
