Where in the World Wednesday - Shimla

Its Wednesday , time for Classy in Philly's weekly feature Where in the world Wednesday ..
The idea of WITWW is to post a picture of you , in someplace in the world ..It doesn't have to be somewhere foreign or tropical .Just a picture of you somewhere you consider travelling . It might even be somewhere in your hometown ..

Participation entails taking this button , the fabulous Feris and using it on your post ..Also once you've posted it , post the link here in the comments section , so we can all share each other's experiences , find new and interesting blogs to read and make new friends :)

This week i am in Shimla, a beautiful hill station and one of the famous tourist destinations in India . ..this was a trip i took with my sisters and hubby in Oct'08 .. The unique thing about Shimla is that despite bulging at its seams with unprecedented expansion , it still retains its colonial heritage and charm ..The hotel we stayed in had a warm old world hospitality feel to it and the room had a spectacular view of the valley and hills .. The famous Mall Road , the busiest commerical area of this place was a great place for eating and shopping alike .
All in all it was an absolutely unforgettable experience ..Here's the pic :)
