Discover the Living Heritage of Kullu Valley
Kullu Valley — Where Gods Walk the Earth
Kullu Valley lies along the banks of the Beas River in Himachal Pradesh, known as the "Valley of Gods." This is the heart of Kullu culture — home to over 200 local deities, lush apple orchards, and the grand Kullu Dussehra festival. The Kullu valley has long been celebrated for its handmade textiles, especially the world-famous Kullu pashmina shawls, woven with vibrant geometric patterns passed down through generations.
