Visuals from the area captured police helping travelers and drivers navigate through the heavy snowfall, as local authorities managed rescue efforts. The surge of tourists visiting to celebrate Christmas and New Year in the snow-covered mountains has further intensified the situation.


Tourists flock to Manali from December to February for the snow-covered mountains, but the heavy snowfall turned into a headache for both visitors and authorities. While Manali faced logistical challenges in clearing the snow, Shimla was blanketed in fresh snow, bringing renewed joy to the city.
The enchanting snowfall, which followed a two-week gap since December 8, has delighted visitors and revitalized the local tourism industry, helping it recover from the losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
