A hill station is a town located at a higher elevation than the nearby plain or valley. The term was used mostly in colonial Asia (particularly in India), but also in Africa (albeit rarely), for towns founded by European colonialists as refuges from the summer heat and, as Dale Kennedy observes about the Indian context, "the hill station ... was seen as an exclusive British preserve: here it was possible to render the Indian into an outsider". In India, which has the largest number of hill stations, most are situated at an altitude of approximately 1,000 to 2,500 metres (3,300 to 8,200 ft).

  • 避暑地(ひしょち、英 : Hill station)とは、避暑のために訪れる土地。夏でも冷涼な気候であることが求められるため、標高の高い、または緯度の高い寒冷地が選ばれることが多い。住宅地化、都市化の波に呑み込まれた地域もあるが、別荘や宿泊施設が建ち並ぶリゾート型の避暑地も多い。日本を代表する避暑地として、軽井沢が知られている。 (ja)
  • 避暑地是指海拔高于附近平原或山谷的城镇。该术语主要用于亚洲殖民时期(特别是印度),但也用于非洲(很少),指欧洲移民为避暑而建立在温度较低之地的城镇。在印度,大多数避暑地的海拔高度约为1,000至2,500米(3,300至8,200英尺);极少数在这个范围之外。 (zh)
  • Une station de montagne ou ville d'altitude (en anglais : Hill station) est un terme utilisé principalement en Asie coloniale, mais aussi en Afrique (bien que rarement), pour désigner des villes situées à une altitude plus élevée que la plaine ou vallée voisines et qui furent fondées par les dirigeants coloniaux européens dans le but premier de préserver les coloniaux de la chaleur de l'été, les températures étant plus fraîches en altitude. (fr)
  • Con hill station (dall’inglese, "stazione collinare" o "stazione di montagna") venivano designate, soprattutto in epoca coloniale, città situate a un'altitudine più elevata rispetto alla pianura o alla valle vicina. Il termine era utilizzato principalmente nell'Asia coloniale, ma anche in Africa (benché più raramente) per le città fondate dai dominatori coloniali europei, con lo scopo di dare sollievo dal calore estivo. Nel subcontinente indiano, solitamente la maggior parte delle stazioni di montagna erano situate a un'altitudine compresa tra i 1000 e i 2500 m. (it)
  • Een hill station is in het Indisch subcontinent een plaats in de bergen waar het klimaat dankzij de hoogte in de zomers milder is dan in de vlakten. De term werd bedacht door de victoriaanse Britten (die middelgebergte en zelfs hooggebergte in India the hills noemden), maar is tegenwoordig ook nog gebruikelijk. In sommige gevallen werden spoorlijntjes aangelegd naar een hill station. In de Britse tijd werden veel villa's gebouwd die als tweede huis van de koloniale machthebbers dienden. (nl)
  • Hill station é um termo inglês que, traduzido à letra significa "estância de montanha". Geralmente designa especificamente uma cidade a altitude elevada, com clima ameno e semelhante ao do norte da Europa, que foi fundada ou floresceu durante o período colonial como local de descanso e recreio da administração e elite dos colonizadores, que nesses locais passavam os períodos em que o clima nas áreas mais baixas eram menos suportáveis pelos europeus, devido ás temperaturas elevadas e chuvas torrenciais. O termo aplica-se principalmente às estâncias da Ásia colonial, nomeadamente do Império Britânico, mas também existem ou existiram algumas hill stations em África. A maior parte delas e as mais antigas foram fundadas pelos britânicos, mas os franceses e holandeses e até os americanos também (pt)
  • Горная станция — перевод английского термина Hill Station. Обычно обозначает поселение в горах на Индийском субконтиненте.Термин использовался британскими колонизаторами в Азии (реже в Африке) для обозначения поселения, используемого ими в качестве убежища от летней жары. Горные станции есть в Индии, Пакистане, Малайзии, Мьянме. В Индии большинство горных станций расположены на высоте от 1000 до 2500 метров над уровнем моря.Как правило, они были основаны Британской Армией, лишь некоторые были созданы индийскими правителями в качестве места отдыха или столицы.
