Himachal-beautys

Sirmour valley

One of the most beautiful valley, though not so much explored till recent times. That's Sirmour or Solan valley for you. The major towns lying in this valley include Sirmour,Pachhad , Kotla Barog and Saursu Small villages and hamlets also occupy a large part of the valley. In its lower parts, wild olive, pomegranate and fig trees grow along with acacia, shisham and pipal. Rice fields too can be found in the lower regions of the valley. The upper mountainous region have fields of maize, wheat, barely and other cereals, however these are usually small in size and are terraced. The northern mountain slopes are blanketed with forests while the southern part is devoid of any of forests. Presence of medicinal herbs and colourful flowers have made this valley both beautiful and useful for humans.
