‘Shimla Nahin Basna, Kasauli Nahin Basna, Chamba Jana Zaroor’ Settle not in Shimla, not in Kasauli, visit Chamba for sure – are the opening lyrics of a popular Himachali folk song sung by folk singers. Such is the charm of Chamba. Dotted with historical and architecturally significant landmarks, the town in its temples and palaces preserves much of its rich medieval past. For a traveller there is much to explore in and around Chamba. Chamba, perhaps the loveliest valley of Himachal, is a treasure trove of scenic attractions, sparkling streams, primeval lakes, meadows, dense alpine tree covers, rich wildlife and fertile valleys. At the crossroads of Dhauladhar and Zanskar ranges, the region borders Jammu & Kashmir and is the northernmost district of the state. Fast flowing streams drain into River Ravi on the southern side and into River Chenab on the northern fringes.
