9Shimla, India
Also known as Simla, this city is the capital of the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.
Located in Northern India, Shimla was declared in 1864 the summer capital of British India.
This snowy destination has a subtropical highland climate, meaning mostly cold winters and moderately warm summers.
Nestled at the foothills of the Himalayas, Shimla ranked #9 on our top list, with amazing sights such as cascading waterfalls, dense pine-deodar forests, snow-clad mountains and something offtopic like the Gaiety Theatre, Jakhoo Temple, Christ Church, and the Institue of Advanced Studies.
They are all worth seeing!
During the peak winter season, the temperatures in Shimla can drop to sub-zero.
If your not a fan of cold weather but still want to visit this beautiful city, then the best time to visit Shimla is from March to May and from October to November.
Japan, you’re next!
