Mussoorie

Over 6500 feet above sea level, on a ridge in the Garhwal Himalayas, lies the town of Mussoorie. Despite having been established less than 200 years ago, its strategic location was a major factor in establishing its significance. It serves as a rest stop for adventure seekers preparing to climb the higher mountains beyond, as well as Hindu pilgrims traveling on the revered "Chota Char Dham Yatra" to Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath. For almost 19 kilometers, the powerful Yamuna and Ganga rivers flow past Mussoorie's two sides.Uttrakahand's capital city, Dehradun, is connected to Mussoorie. It's close to Delhi and can be reached by bus up the north in about 6 hours. Getting a bus from Kashmere gate is incredibly inexpensive; an AC Volvo bus will set you back about 600 rupees. It will be half the price for government buses or non-AC buses.Company Garden is a well-liked tourist attraction in Mussoorie city. It is about 3 km from Mall Road. The lush greenery of company garden with more than 850 types of flowering plants, a fountain in the lawn and a greenhouse nursery attracts tourists to this place.

People come here to stroll and sit in the garden and have a telescopic view of Himalayan Mountain at a cost of Rs 10 only.There are many good hotels/hostels in Mussoorie which are less expensive.
