Kasauli Travel Guide

The much-used term of `time warp' takes on a whole new meaning when applied to the pretty little town of Kasauli (1,927 mt) in Himachal Pradesh. The British came to Kasauli during the days of the Raj, and although they’ve gone, they’ve left behind more than a mere hint of their presence- in the quiet cobbled streets, the flower-filled gardens fronting gabled bungalows, the lovely churches around Kasauli. The bustle of Shimla, just 77 km away, seems almost part of another time zone.

Kasauli makes for a great getaway from the busy city of Chandigarh or the hurly burly of Delhi. So travel to Kasauli and lose yourself in the timeless allure of this beautiful hill station.

Kasauli has the Pastur Institute that was set up in 1900. Here they produce the anti-rabies vaccine against mad dog-bite and, at the same time, treats victims who have fallen prey to the dreaded disease - hydrophobia.
