The trip was fabulous. Shimla is an amazing place with lots to see and do. Our tour operator was excellent. All of their suggestions and recommendations were solid. We loved our hotel and the location. All the tours were high-quality and we experienced no difficulties with pickups. Mr. Nitin was extremely pleasant to work with and truly wanted us to have a fabulous time.

We cannot recommend this travel company enough! My husband and I had been wanting to go to India for quite some time but had not done so due to lack of time to plan a worthwhile trip. Booking with this company was exactly what we needed--we told them the types of places and sites we wanted to see and they took care of the rest.

I got exactly the vacation I wanted for almost no work and probably cheaper than I could have done it myself. I told this travel company what I wanted and they just did the rest. The hotels and tours/activities were great! Couldn't have asked for more. Great service too they were very responsive and helpful!

Raghunath Temple in Kullu

Raghunath Temple is one of the most important temples in Kullu. It is believed that in 17th century, Raja Jagat Singh committed a sin. And to cover up for the sin, he sent one of his courtiers to Ayodhya to get a deity of Lord Raghunath (Lord Rama). When he returned from Ayodhya, the king built this temple and installed the idol. Since then, this temple is given great reverence by the locals. In fact, not just locals, travelers visiting Kullu always take out time to offer their sincere prayers here, and get blessings from the sweet lord. It is always thronged with devotees but during Dussehra festival, the intensity increases.

The temple hosts International Dussehra Fair every year, which falls on October or November. During the festival, people gather to celebrate the power of goodness over evil, and to have darshans of local deities and Lord Raghunath. The Temple has great reverence for Hindus and it’s a must visit if you are coming to Kullu.
