Surprisingly for a hill station, there are quite a few places you can go shopping in Shimla. From strolling along the crowded Mall and browsing through an eclectic mix of stores, to shopping for junk jewellery and shawls at the Tibetan market, buying colourful bangles at Lower Bazaar, wandering through the maze-like lanes of Lakkar Bazaar while looking for wooden decorative items and stocking up on some freshly made jams and preserves at Minchy’s you’ll return from your trip with laden bags and lots of souvenirs for everyone back at home.
