On your tour to Arki, the places which are worth seeing is the well-designed palace charmingly positioned against a forested hillside. Renovated now, the palace is a legacy Hotel. Some of the shrines like the Jakholi Temple are also a must visit in Arki.

A significant happening of Arki is the Sair Fair, which takes place in the honor of the Banar devta in the months of July and September. Lot of small stalls comes up and there is plenty of singing and dancing, but the main thing that draw attention of the people are the buffalo fights.
Tourist Attractions in Barog
Barog is a very small town emerging as a chief holiday appeal to spend a day. It was once an imperative halt in the earlier period of the century when the Kalka-Shimla toy train halted here for an hour while the British enjoyed a three course lunch. The destination is one of the best on the line with its hanging baskets of pink geraniums, was given this name after the engineer Barog.
Main Attractions
Just about 3km from the hill station is the grave of Barog. The poor guy was unsuccessful in supporting both the sides of the tunnel and so they say he ended his life after that. It is assumed that if the passageway had been suitably built it would have been the greatest in the world.
Enclosed by pine forests, Barog is nowadays a holiday destination for people who are hunting for tranquility, silence and isolation. It has some beautiful sights and walks and one must experience the one that takes you to the Choordhar Mountains at an altitude of 3650 ft. The moonlight cleanses down the snowy slopes making it seem as if several silver bangles are descending down silently.
Spencer Restaurant
Another place of magnetism of Barog is the Spencer Restaurant which again dates back to the British Raj. It used to have different enclosures for the British, the Hindus and the Muslims.
Kalka Tour
This is the station for the narrow gauge railway to Shimla and is just on the border of the state of Haryana. On your shimla tour take a stopover at Kalka. There is perhaps nothing to see in Kalka so it is better not to waste time over here.
