Chitkul
Chitkul (Chittkul) is a town in Kinnaur region of Himachal Pradesh. It is the last possessed town close to the Indo-China outskirt. The Indian street closes here. Amid winters, the spot for the most part stays secured with the snow and the tenants move to lower locales of Himachal. Potatoes developed at Chittkul are one of the best on the planet and are extremely costly.Of specific enthusiasm at Chitkul are its homes with either slate or wooden board rooftops, a Buddhist sanctuary and a little tower. In any case, there has been an expanded utilization of tin-rooftops, particularly the secondary school and the armed force/ITBP sleeping shelter.
The Kagyupa sanctuary has an exceedingly esteemed old picture of the Shakyamuni Buddha, a Wheel of Life mandala and four Directional Kings on either side of the entryway. Chitkul is for all intents and purposes the last purpose of the popular Kinner Kailash Parikrama as one can hitch a climb from here onwards.
After one traverses the 5,242 m high Charang Pass, it is a long and soak rundown through slithery scree slants to Chitkul(3,450m). The capable goddess of Chitkul is the main non-Buddhist divinity to which regard must be paid by the Parikrama travelers. It is trusted that the nearby Deity is identified with the Deity of Gangotri and till as of late local people would convey the Deity to Gangotri by walking over high mountain passes.[2] Chitkul is arranged around 40 km from Karcham, the spot where street bifurcates from Hindustan-Tibet Road (NH 22). The Sangla Valley is a joy for nature significant others; particularly the stretch after Raksham and up to Chitkul. The valley is amazingly wonderful, on the left bank of the Baspa River are snow-clad mountains and on the right bank the entire landscape is loaded with apple orchids and wooden houses.
