For an ideal summer getaway or to spend a relaxing weekend, Dehradun is the answer. Beautiful rolling hills of green, misty mornings and fresh air.
Dehradun has it all. Nestled in the Shivaliks, the hill station is 640 metres above sea level. Once ruled by the Garhwal kings, it later became a British residential town.
Dehradun is famous for its several public schools and institutions. The Tapkeshwar Temple is Dehradun's most famous temple.
Dedicated to Shiva, the temple has a stream flowing directly over the lingam. The other star attractions are the Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology and Robber's Cave. |
