'''Mussoorie''' is a [[hill station]] situated in the foothills of the Himalayas. It was developed by the British from 1825 as a summer retreat and remains a popular tourist destination. Several boarding schools catering for British families were established in and around Mussoorie and its satellite, '''Landour''', (alternative spelling Landaur). There was a British cantonment at Landour.
