At an altitude of 1829
mts. above
sea level, this hill resort is undoubtedly a tourists' paradise. The scented
mountain breeze, fresh and pure, the singing of birds, the panoramic view of the
Himalayas
-the sights, sounds and smells leave the onlooker spellbound. To view nature and
its elements in full harmony, the right place to be a Ranikhet.
Being a cantonment (the place was
selected as a hill station for British troops and accordingly the cantonment was
established in 1869), the Kumaon Regimental Centre, Museum and Memorial are the
jewels of Ranikhet.
