The Ridge evolved as a natural feature of the mountainside and gained prominence during the British Raj. Initially a walking path connecting the main settlements, it became the social and cultural heart of Shimla. Significant events like the declaration of the Durand Line and the Simla Conference were held here. Christ Church, built in the mid-19th century, and other colonial-era buildings on The Ridge stand as testaments to its historical significance. Over time, it has transformed from a simple promenade to a bustling public space, retaining its charm and allure.
