Shimla
or Simla is the capital of the state of Himachal Pradesh in India. It is a
very popular holiday-retreat during the summer months and is well-known
for its Victorian architecture, which is reflected in certain areas of the
Mall and The Ridge. It is also a famous holiday spot for honeymoon. There
are quite a few theories regarding the origin of the word Shimla. Locals
insist that the name originates from Shyamali Devi, a re-incarnation of
the fearsome Goddess Kali. Shimla has a population of around 145,000. Most
of the residents are from the Pahadi community (the natives of Himachal
Pradesh), but there is also a sizable minority from Punjab and Sindh, who
moved to Shimla during the partition. As a result, the languages spoken in
Shimla include Hindi, Punjabi, Pahadi and English, which serves as a
lingua-franca.
