Parwanoo

Parwanoo is a city and a municipal council in Solan district in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh. It's an industrial town It borders Panchkula district of Haryana, and is after the towns of Pinjore and Kalka on the Chandigarh-Shimla Highway. In fact, It is separated by a river bed from the town of Kalka. Pinjore to Parwanoo is almost a continuous urban belt. From Pinjore there is also a road to Baddi, another nearby industrial town of Himachal. To cash in on its proximity to Chandigarh and Panchkula the government set up industrial sectors and gave incentives that invited many small scale units to set up shop here. Prominent among them are Purolator, Morepen, Eicher (now sold to TAFE [1]), and Samtel.

Dalli on its northern outskirts (on the Shimla highway) is famous for its meat pickle shops. A resort with a cable car called Timber Trail is a few miles north of the town on the Shimla highway again.

The town is 35 km from Chandigarh and 20 km from Panchkula. There is also a route to Kasauli direct from Parwanoo, avoiding Dharampur.
