The temperature of Shimla is lower than that of Chandigarh because of its altitude difference.  

Explanation:

  • The Shimla lies high in altitude than Chandigarh. It lies much above sea level. Hence there is a decrease in pressure. As the pressure goes down air molecules over the area expand parting away from each other.
  • In this process, there is a release of energy which further cools down the area. Thereby a fall in the temperature in Shimla we feel than in Chandigarh. The second reason is Shimla is much closer to the snow-clad mountains of Himalaya thereby receiving cool breeze and cold temperature.
  • The former also accounts for receiving more rains than Chandigarh keeping the area relatively colder than that of Chandigarh.
