'''Himachal Pradesh''' ({{lang-hi|हिमाचल प्रदेश}}) ([[Punjabi]]: ਹਿਮਾਚਲ ਪ੍ਰਦੇਸ਼) is a [[States of India|state]] in northern [[India]]. '''''[[Shimla]]''''' is the capital of Himachal Pradesh. It covers an area of 56,019 [[km²]] (21,629 [[square mile|mi²]]), although the border with [[China]] is still disputed. The land contains high [[mountain]]s. In traditional Indian geography it falls under the [[North India]]n zone. It borders the disputed Indian-occupied territory of ''[[Indian-administered Kashmir]]'' to the north.

Himachal Pradesh was part of [[Indian Punjab]] before 1966.

The State of '''HP''' is divided into three Divisions, namely '''Mandi Division''', '''Kangra Division''', '''Shimla Division'''. The divisions are further sub-divided into 12 districts. These are further divided into 55 sub-divisions, 82 [[tehsil]]s and 35 sub-tehsils.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://himachalpr.gov.in/hpglance.asp |title=Himachal At A Glance - Information Data centre |access-date=2013-07-25 |archive-date=2013-08-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130816165620/http://himachalpr.gov.in/hpglance.asp |url-status=dead }}</ref>
