In the queen
of hills (MUSSOORIE) lies a secret door to heaven that was undiscovered until
Colonel Sir George Everest a Surveyor and a geographer from wales reached the
place back in 1865.
The Mount Everest was named after him in his honor by the Royal Geographical
Society.
Sir George
Everest owned a house in the hill which was also his laboratory. The house has
a view nothing less than that of heaven. The house was built back in 1832 and
is still intact. Currently the house is under the tourism department and there
were several talks of turning the house into a museum.
Being a resident of Dehradun, George Everest is my personal favorite place to go
with friends. The place is a perfect destination for the photographers as it is
at a height of more than 7000ft. surrounded by beautiful mountains in the north
and a beautiful valley of dun on the other side.
George Everest, the beautiful heavenly peak is just 40 kms. away from the Dehradun city. With no difficulty and in almost an hour and a half time you can reach the destination. The roads are well connected throughout with beautiful curves, cool breeze and awesome view on the sides.
The best thing about the way to Mussoorie are the Maggie points, there are more than 100 Maggie points on the way that serves special Maggie ,tea, coffee, bun-Omelette, bun-makhan and lots more.
It is definitely a travelers paradise and the beauty of the place will surely make you visit again.
