===Heritage=== Solan's history is intertwined with that of the erstwhile princely state of Baghat. The Solan cantonment is still the best, and the most well planned part of the area, hence buildings are made in a planned manner. The church in Solan cantonment is a heritage building, with wooden and stone carvings. It has sloping roofs and arches, reminiscent of [[Architecture of the United Kingdom|British architecture]].{{citation needed|date=December 2017}} The list of heritage buildings in Solan town is as follows:- *Shoolini Devi temple.
