Shimla Honeymoon Packages

Shimla or Simla as it has been known for decades is a treasure trove of nostalgia as tourists have partaken of its beauty for as long as one can remember. Shimla is the capital and largest city in the extraordinarily beautiful state of Himachal Pradesh. It was the summer capital of British India and the development of Shimla as a premier hill station goes to the British. Shimla takes its name after ‘Shyamala Devi’, an incarnation of Kali. During a Shimla tour, couples have the opportunity to explore this place of importance in a better way with affordably priced Shimla honeymoon packages from Veena World.

To put this great city in the bracket of being just a hill station would be incorrect. Apart from being the governance and administrative summer capital of the British, this city has hosted many historical and political meetings that have had far-reaching repercussions. Simla Accord of 1914, Simla Conference of 1945 and Simla Agreement of 1972 were some of the most important ones. 

Owing to the British influence, there are many colonial buildings here that are still in use. The neo-gothic architectural buildings stand in complete harmony amidst the native designs. The Kalka–Shimla Railway line built by the British, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is also a major tourist attraction. A well-planned Shimla honeymoon package for couples can promise a rich experience along with a fun time.

Things to Do in Shimla during your Honeymoon

The beauty of India hill stations is that you are amazed at how different natural wonders come to together to create beautiful destinations. Enjoying a holiday in Shimla with a package for couples can be a wonderful experience. And there’s so much to do and see without compromising on a romantic time, you would be spoiled for choices.

We have come up with a list of attractions that are a must-visit on a tour to Shimla with a package for couples:

• Kalka Shimla Railway: The mere mention of Narrow-gauge railway trains opens up a box of nostalgia as we don’t get to see them much often these days. Savouring the splendid sceneries with your partner as the train chugs through mountains and tunnels is a highlight on any Shimla honeymoon tour.
• The Ridge: Contrary to what the name suggests, the ridge is a wide-open street and holds the pulse of the city. Located at the heart of Shimla, the Ridge is the convergence of many things. Not only is it a meeting point for locals who have a good time chit-chatting and snacking, but it is also a place where many concerts and rallies happen. It is perhaps the most prominent landmark in the city. With lush trees and a magnificent view of the hustle and bustle below, it is lined with restaurants, pubs, cafés and an electrifying buzz. Couples on a Shimla honeymoon package stop here on the way to Mall Road.
• Scandal Point: The name itself is enough to draw attention. It is an aggrandization of the quintessential “lover’s point’ found in many hill stations. The name probably came into existence because the presence of a dense forest cover and an unmatched view of the mountains provided succour and privacy to love-struck couples in the olden days. The charm has not eroded and couples on Shimla trip packages still throng to this place to enjoy some private time together. And a steaming bowl of Maggi is the icing on the cake.
• Mall Road: A Shimla honeymoon package is incomplete without a visit to Mall Road which is the busiest commercial area of the city. Vehicles are prohibited on the road and couples can safely walk and enjoy the sights. Numerous shops sell traditional Himachali handicrafts, wooden furniture and décor items, fruit preserves and squashes, woollen shawls and Himachali caps. Do not forget to get souvenirs for friends and family back home. And when all the shopping makes you tired, relax your feet and enjoy a sumptuous spread at the many restaurants here.
• Kufri: Just about 13 km from the main town lies the sleepy hamlet of Kufri which is known for its dazzling beauty. Being at a higher altitude, it witnesses snowfall in winters and couples on Shimla honeymoon tour packages love to ski on the slopes. A trek up to the highest point, Mashru Peak, is a great way to soak in the sights.
• Jakhoo Temple: Dedicated to the monkey God Hanuman, Jakhoo temple is located on Shimla’s highest peak, Jakhoo Hill. Tourists and devotees throng here to have a look at the imposing 108-feet-high idol of Hanuman. If your Shimla honeymoon package is planned around Dussehra, do not miss the impressive annual Dussehra Festival held here. Legend has it that in Ramayana, Hanuman stopped at the location to rest while searching for the Sanjivni Booti to revive Laxman. This temple can be a great place to pray for a blissful married life for couples.

Best Time to visit Shimla

It is important that you choose your Shimla honeymoon tour package at a time when you get to enjoy the best weather. The summers (March to June) are the best season to enjoy a Shimla to the fullest with pleasant weather and plenty of outdoor activities. However, if your mind is set to have fun in the snow, the winters (November to February) are ideal. The monsoon period (July to September) should be avoided due to the fear of landslides.
