As we were heading for Mashobara , we passed through the beautiful Sanjauli , the heart of shimla , as the people loved to call it. It seemed like someone painted the colourful houses and the blue sky.

Day 3

Next day after a delicious breakfast of some pipping hot Parathas and a cup of coffee , we walked the way to the Shimla Railway station to take a ride on a piece of history,  that has travelled through the time , The Legenday Toy train  Himlayan Queen that would take us down the plains with sceneries so beautiful that would drop your jaw. The train line from shimla to kalka goes through 102 tunnels , 988 bridges and 977 curves as it finds its way to the plains.
