This small
hill station seems to live in time warp that belongs to
the 19th century. The narrow roads of Kasauli (1951m)
slither up and down the hillside and offer some
magnificent vistas. Directly below is the spread of vast
plains of Punjab and Haryana which as darkens falls,
unroll a gorgeous carpet of twinkling lights. At 3647 m,
the peak of Choor Chandni (also called the Choordhar)
powerfully dominates the lower hills and across the
undulating ranges, Shimla is visible.
