Table of Contents
Located in the Garhwal district of Uttarakhand, the town of Lansdowne is one of the quietest hill stations in India. Situated at an elevation of 1780 metres, the town is adorned with lush green mountains covered with oak and pine trees. Lansdowne is the regimental centre for the Garhwal Rifles of the Indian Army. Back in 1887, the town was established as the British cantonment and got its name from the then Viceroy of India. The hill station is a popular tourist attraction for its churches, temples, lake and natural beauty.
Lansdowne has so much to offer for exploring and discovering. One can visit the Tarkeshwar Mahadev temple, Bhulla Tal lake, Tip-in-Top point and Garhwali mess. To explore the richness of history and culture more, one can head on to visit Darwin Singh Museum, St. John’s Church and Garhwal Rifles Regimental War Memorial.
Situated in the lap of the Himalayas, Lansdowne offers an ever so welcoming and pleasant atmosphere at all times of the year. However, monsoons can be a little risky to travel due to chances of landslides. The best time to visit the hill station is, therefore, around April to June.
