About Kullu

Kullu sits on the Beas River in Himachal Pradesh's Valley of Gods, on the main road between Mandi and Manali. The town feels quieter than Manali's nightlife strip, with a stronger local rhythm around temples, shawl and handicraft markets, and the week-long Kullu Dussehra at Dhalpur Maidan. Apple orchards and pine slopes frame the river, and day trips climb to hillside shrines such as Bijli Mahadev. Raghunath Temple at Sultanpur anchors the town's spiritual calendar when deities from across the valley gather. Travelers often pause here for culture, river views, and a slower Himalayan stop rather than high-altitude thrills alone.
