Dhalpur Maidan is the large open ground in central Kullu where the week-long Kullu Dussehra unfolds each autumn. Unlike many Indian Dussehra celebrations that burn Ravana effigies, Kullu's festival centers on processions of village deities who gather here to honor Lord Raghunath. Outside festival season the maidan is an everyday public space near markets, transport points, and the Beas, useful for an evening stroll or people-watching. During Dussehra expect packed crowds, temporary stalls, cultural performances, and heavy traffic around the ground. Visit Raghunath Temple the same day to understand the festival's spiritual link.
- How to Reach: In the heart of Kullu town, a short walk or auto ride from the main bus stand and most central stays.
