Chandigarh, December 25

There was no "white" Christmas in Shimla this year, but the Met department has predicted snow from December 26-29.

Sunshine with light clouds in the sky greeted the people at most of the tourist destinations in Himachal.

The weatherman has forecast clear sky but despite that, excited holidaymakers have already started descending on tourist resorts across the state with the hope of white New Year, if not Christmas.

Giving a picturesque view, the mountain peaks viewed from Shimla's historic Ridge have been wrapped in a thick white blanket of snow.
