Naggar

A former royal capital, centred on a 16th-century castle that now operates as a heritage hotel. The village sits high above the Beas River with sweeping valley views, and the surrounding area has a quiet, unhurried character that's entirely different from Manali's tourist bustle.

Other than these natural treasures, the town of Naggar also has a castle, Naggar fort, which has now been converted into a heritage hotel and tends to be the most popular tourist spot here. The castle also houses Nicholas Roerich Art Gallery, which was once the Russian artist's residence. One can browse through a number of rare artworks, the artists' private rooms and collectibles.
