I have only been through Deha dun as a stopover by train. Meet a very nice Hindu man who sold canvas bags who actually showed up at the train station to see us of..I go to Haridwar(very close) every year and now that I read about it it I think I will have to go stay a few days. Most of the more interesting sights are located outside of the city. What I remember was a rather funky down to earth place.
Dehradun previously called Dehra Doon,is the capital city of Uttaranchal state of India and is also the headquarter of Dehradun District. It is located in the Doon valley, 230 kilometers north of Indian capital New Delhi and the Delhi metro. It is surrounded by the Himalayas mountains on the north, Shivalik Hills on the south, and the river Ganges east and the river Yamuna on the west. The water divide of Ganga and Yamuna passes through the city. It is also located on the northern side of the fertile Gangetic plains of India.Neighbouring cities and towns include Haridwar, Rishikesh, Roorkee, Mussoorie and Saharanpur.
