Almora is situated in the Kumaon mountains
of the Himalayas in eastern Uttarakhand. Most of the
town is situated on a crescent shaped mountain ridge
about 5 km long, and most of it is above 6,000 feet.
Unlike Shimla, Ranikhet and Nainital which were developed
by the English, Almora is a hill station totally developed
by the Kumaoni Indians.
Jawaharlal Nehru served a term of imprisonment
in the Jail at Almora during the British rule. He had
left behind an elaborate account of the pleasures of
solitude and the varied moods of nature in his various
letters written from this place to his daughter.
The town itself is your usual crowded
hilltown in northern India, but the natural beauty around
is astounding. Almora is also called a town of temples,Situated
in the centre of the town is the temple of Goddess Nanda
Devi.
