Shimla

Naldhera is home to India's oldest golf course, established in 1905 by Lord Curzon, then Viceroy of India — a specific piece of colonial-era history embedded directly into the landscape. At 2,044m, the adjacent Nag temple adds a layer of local religious history alongside the golf heritage. Best time is March–June or September–October. It offers a quieter, greener alternative to central Shimla for travelers who want the same regional views without the crowd density of Mall Road.
