Let us tell you that to promote tourism in Shimla and entertain the tourists who come to Shimla on Christmas and New Year, the Shimla Municipal Corporation started the Winter Carnival last year. It is being organized for the second time.
Snowfall in Shimla a day before the Winter Carnival has definitely caused hindrance in the event. But this is no less than a gift for the tourists as well as the people of the state. This has led to more crowds of tourists. Hence, the tourists arriving in Shimla will be able to enjoy the Winter Carnival of snow.
