Dalhousie

Dalhousie, a town in Himachal Pradesh, India, is a charming hill station established in 1854 by Lord Dalhousie. It is located in the Himalayan foothills at an elevation of about 7,500 feet (2,300 meters), it's a popular summer retreat offering respite from the heat. The town stretches across five hills: Kathlog, Potreyn, Terah (now Moti Tibba), Bakrota, and Bhangora. It's a good destination for honeymooners, but not recommended for those seeking vibrant nightlife.

Key attractions include Sat Dhara, known for its mica-rich streams; Panjpula, a memorial site; Subhash Baoli, a natural spring; and Dainkund Peak, famous as Singing Hill. The Kalatop Wildlife Sanctuary, about 6 miles (10 km) from town, offers a weekend retreat with breathtaking views of the Pir Panjal Range. Historically, Dalhousie served as a sanatorium and cantonment for British troops, with the cantonment area called Baloon. Today, Dalhousie maintains its colonial-era architecture, transporting visitors back in time.
