Ridge, Shimla Overview
At the heart of the 'British Summer Capital' - Shimla, The Ridge is the most photographed wide-open street located on the side of Shimla Mall Road. The Ridge has everything, from shops selling some exclusive artefacts to the spectacular view of the snow-capped mountain ranges. Best known for shopping and for being the social hub of the city, the Ridge still holds Shimla's rich past in its Gothic buildings and prehistoric architecture.
The road is lined with cafes, bars, boutiques, shops and restaurants attracting the huge crowd that visit the famous Mall Road. It runs from east to west on the side of the Mall Road and connects it to the famous Scandal Point on the west end. On the east end, it is connected to the Lakkar Bazaar, which is the most famous wooden crafts market in Shimla.
