With time Shimla has transformed from quite places where you go to relax after our daily city lives to an over commercialized tourist destination,where you can't find any Peace.But still,there are many places around Shimla which still have their charm.

Day 1

So we started our Journey by driving from Jammu to Kufri,which took us about 12 hours.We found a good hotel in the outskirts of Kufri and our stay was really comfortable.

Day 2

We visited Narkanda today,This place is still away from all the commercialization of Shimla and Kufri and spending some time in the woods over there is really peaceful.We had planned to go to Hatu peak which is a half an hour drive from Narkanda,but due to some landslide the road was blocked and we had to return halfway from there.Then we came back to our hotel in Kufri.
