Tired of the Shimla crowds and Insta cliches? Say hello to Shoghi, a hidden gem just 13 km from Shimla.

Tucked in the lap of the Himalayas, this tiny hill station is all about peace, pine trees, and unplugging from chaos. If you're craving fresh mountain air, chill vibes, and a break from endless screen time — Shoghi's got your back.

It's perfect for nature walks, trekking, and birdwatching. Visit Tara Devi Temple for killer valley views or check out the Hanuman Temple and Kandaghat for some calm, spiritual energy.

Adventure junkie? The local Adventure Park has rappelling and rock climbing too.

You'll fall in love with Himachali food — try Siddu, Chana Madra, and sweets like Babru. Local cafes also serve up cozy vibes and great chai.

Just a heads-up: limited mobile network, cash is king, and transport's mostly private. But honestly, that's part of the charm.

So, if you're hunting for a quiet, affordable getaway that's big on nature and low on noise, Shoghi is the offbeat escape you never knew you needed.
