Dalhousie (Hindi: डलहौज़ी) is a hill station on the western part of Himachal Pradesh in northern India. Located 1,954 m (6,411 ft) above sea level, it has a population of 7,500 people (2012 estimate).

Due to its elevation, Dalhousie experiences a cool climate throughout the year. Winters can get bitterly cold, and often accompanied by wet weather. The town was named after James Broun-Ramsay, the 1st Marquess of Dalhousie, as it was established in 1854 when he was the viceroy of India.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
