"Mussoorrie ends with \'ee\' which sounds feminie, so presumably it is called as the Queen of Hill station. On the other hand, Simla, its original name ends with \'aa\' which has a masculine connotation, so it can aptly be hailed as the King of the hills. Therefore the author of the book, \'Shimla - A British Himalayan Town\' does full justice to its erstwhile royal grandeur."
