About Christ Church in Shimla

Christ Church in Shimla is the second oldest church in all of India and is constructed in the Neo-Gothic style. It is located in the area known as The Ridge in Shimla and is a popular tourist spot apart from being a revered place of worship. Towards the night the church is lit up in a beautiful way, but during Christmas and Easter celebrations, it is decorated like a bride about to walk down the aisle. Midnight mass is also held here, and prayer services are held in both Hindi and English.

Architecture of Christ Church

With its Neo-Catholic style, the architecture of Christ Church is quite glorious in appearance. The most striking features of this architectural marvel are its windows, which are decked with brass plaques and colored glasses. Moreover, these windows represent hope, faith, charity, patience, humility, and fortitude. Besides that, the 90 feet towers, five tubular bells, and a clock are also quite an attraction.   

History of Christ Church

As a huge flock of Britishers and Anglo-Indians, who were followers of Christianity, were residing in Shimla during the British Raj, thy requested the government to build a church. Hence, the construction of the Christ Church in Shimla started in the year 1846. And, it took around 11 years to erect this Christ Church in Shimla. Since then, it became a prime attraction to explore in Shimla.    

Christ Church Library

While, as the church is decorated with lights at night, it looks even more stunning. Apart from that, there is the Christ Church Library located next to the church. Constructed by James Ransome in the year 1910, this library boasts an amazing collection of books and ancient scriptures. 

People who visit Christ Church in Shimla can take somewhere from 1 to 2 hours to explore it. The church has a beautiful vantage point from where there are several gorgeous views available to gloat over. There are a plethora of other attractions also, so as to let people spend some blissful time there.

    Gokul's 6 days trip to Shimla

    We recently completed our Himachal trip across Shimla, Kullu, Manali and it was a very wonderful experience thanks to Travel Talkies in partnership with Travel Triangle. Ms Preeti has assisted right from the start in customising the itinerary, planning the best possible hotel stays throughout and h
    as always been in constant touch with us ensuring the trip was progressing well and we didn't have any issues at any point in time. That was such a lovely gesture and I have not seen that level of hospitality and customer satisfaction with any other travel agents in any of our trips before. It was great working with her and I would recommend the services of Travel Talkies for anyone travelling to Himachal in future. And the next big thanks should go to our driver for the trip Mr Rajender Singh sir who took care of us really well right from Airport pickup to final drop.. He guided as on each sight seeing spot, planned things perfectly from start to end of the day, ensuring we were having a great time throughout.. He never hesitated to take us to small places nearby which was not there in original itinerary but we had time for the day. And the best part was his planning and execution of visit to Rohtang Pass where we had breathtaking views and also we could see the Pass right from start to end providing us complete satisfaction. It was an awesome experience travelling with him and looking forward for future as well. Overall the trip with Travel Talkies team was very good and memorable, highly recommend everyone to consider them for future tours if you want the best customer experience Rohtang Pass, Shimla Mall Road, Kufri and horse ride, Hidimba Devi Temple and all the five days of stays and food provided by Snow White Resort and Manav Valley
