Solan

Solan, a larger industrial town with a number of enterprises, is situated on the Punjab-Himachal Border in the lower Himalayan foothills.

For tourists searching for only a short break from the hustle and bustle of the city, Solan is a relatively low-key hill station.

Solan, a lovely city in Himachal Pradesh, is home to numerous pilgrims and tourists who come to visit its historic temples and monasteries each year. Due to the quantity of mushrooms produced each year, Solan is referred to be the country’s mushroom capital and is home to one of the nation’s oldest breweries. As a result of its extensive tomato production, Solan is also known as the “city of red gold.” This city also boasts a 300-year-old fort that is in ruins but offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding area. It is situated at the summit of a hill. Both worshippers and tourists must visit the Jatoli Shiv Temple and the Shoolini Mata Temple. Everyone visiting Solan must stop at the Yundung Monastery, one of the most well-known monasteries in this area.

Dagshai in Solan, a former British cantonment hamlet, features a jail museum and some great quiet lodging options.
