ABOUT KULLU-MANALI
The most charming and beautiful valley of Kullu spreads out its charm on either side of river Beas. The valley runs north to south of this river and is 80km long and about 2km at its broadest. It is also one of the best place of tourism. Yet with awe inspiring glens and mossy meadows encircled by the rushing streams and meandering brooks, flung east & west, a fairly wide area is open to the tourists, the trekkers, the mountaineers, the artists and to anyone who wishes to escape the heat & dust of the plains to breathe the exhilarating air of the Himalaya and enjoy the spectacle of the variegated mountain scenery. The valley is also famous for its exquisitely woven colourful hand made shawls and kullu caps.
