Two days before Basant Panchami, snow shrouds Shimla making it enchanting and magical, a dreamy winter wonderland. Today on the 3rd day of February, locals and tourists view darkness enveloping the city beautiful with fluffy snow falling slowly with spiralling wind, laying a white blanket of snow all-around. Trees are snowloaded in dark foggy weather. People are enjoying the snowfall in chilly climate with temperature down, touching sub zero level. The sky is pouring flakes liberally in millions, laying a white mantle of snow on all seven hills of the hill queen.
