A small hill station in Himachal Pradesh that I can choose again and again over some other place if I want to spend some days in peace. This is a place that has everything. BEAUTIFUL ROADS, ATTRACTIVE ARCHITECTURE, DENSE PINE FOREST, TRANQUILITY, and MAGICAL SKIES.
Hikers also visit Chail, as it provides spectacular views of the lower Himalayas. This town is just 46km from Shimla.
Chail is famous for many reasons, this place has the World’s highest cricket ground and a beautiful wildlife sanctuary. Town has a famous palace known as Chail Palace, now it is converted into a hotel, but also open for public.
Apart from all of this, Chail is also famous for KALI DA TIBBA, a temple dedicated to goddess of war and destruction MAA KALI. This temple is situated at a top of the hill. Temple route is famous for the mesmerizing views and rare animal species.
If you love fancy cafes and big market for shopping, crowded mall roads then this place is not for you.
Chail is one of those places where you feel incredibly beautiful and fall in love with nature; the kind of place where you go to just sit down, gaze at floating clouds and extremely beautiful pine trees. So if you want some days to disconnect from the world then this place is perfect for you.
