| Mussoorie, with its green hills and varied flora
& fauna, is a fascinating hill resort. Commanding
snow ranges to the north-east, and glittering views
of the Doon Valley & Shiwalik ranges in the
south, the town presents a fairyland atmosphere
to the tourists. Its history dates back to 1827
when Captain Young, an adventurous military officer,
explored the present site and laid the foundation
of this holiday resort which now has few rivals.
Mussoorie is famous for its scenic beauty and hectic
social life. It provides all kinds of amusement
and every facility for domestic and foreign tourists.
Mussoorie is conveniently connected to road by
Delhi and major cities and is the 'Gateway' to
Yamunotri and Gangotri Shrines of Northern India.
The amazing view of pine dominated hill slopes
and snow clad mountains leave an enduring impression
on every visitors's mind. |
