 This could well be Musoorie's twin, as far as popularity's concerned. Another find of the Raj, Dehradun was one of Himalaya's best kept secrets. But no more. Ever since its importance as a hill retreat was realized, thousands of tourists flocked down here, all looking to get their share of old-world charm. Move away from the Clock Tower area with its cafés and stall towards the older Doon. Because here is where you still find rows of ancient cottages with rose trellis lining the garden walls, cobbled roads and old bakeries selling home-made goodies. Dehradun has almost shed its laid-back avatar and now dons the crown of a 'happening place'. Because this is where you will still enjoy the most splendid views of sunsets, chilling winters and the all-time favourite Kwality stickjaws!
