Acting tourists from the world over, Almora is considered the cultural heart of the Kumaon region of Uttaranchal. Almora is popularly known as the 'Switzerland of India'.
"In these hills, nature's hospitality eclipses all men can ever do. The enchanting beauties of the Himalayas, their bracing climate and the soothing green that envelopes you leaves nothing more to be desired. I wonder whether the scenery of these hills and the climate are to be surpassed, if equalled, by any of the beauty spots of the world. After having been nearly three weeks in Almora Hills, I am more than ever amazed why our people need go in Europe in search of health." These are?the words said by Mahatma Gandhi in praise of the overwhelming town of Almora.
