    Pleasant small "town". There are a lot of the schoolchildren. Temples (3?). Brahmans. Hotels(1-2-3fl.). Women with brushwood. Here is Roerich center/museum. High-mountainous park. It would not be desirable to leave. Photos - ar50@yandex.ru

    Naggar castle was built in 15th century by the then ruler of Himachal Pradesh who had established his capital in Naggar. The castle walls are built with flat stone without using any mortar for binding. The view above indicates the constrution detail of one of the walls in the Naggar castle.

    golu ur comments abt this naggar description are correct.But the pic about the walls is incorrect because on the map, people want to see this place.Put some pics which charaterise naggar like, its bus depot, autorickshaw stand or its market displaying Naggar's name...something like this is appreciated. & a pic of the entire traditional house with the walls showing its architecture will be a nice addition from your side. Afterall u stay next to manali...make it beuatiful on this map also.

    Naggar was capital of kullu Rajas for about 1400 years. It is about 25 km from Manali, at a altitude of about 957m. This place is known for its castle and Nicholas Roerich Museum, on left bank of Beas.
