Bilaspur district, Administrative district in Himachal Pradesh, India.

The district spans across 1,167 square kilometers of mountainous terrain intersected by the Sutlej River flowing through valleys and forested regions.

The district originated from the former Kahlur princely state, which merged with Himachal Pradesh in 1954 following India's independence.

The Nalwari cattle fair, held annually in March and April, brings together farmers, merchants, and visitors for livestock trading and regional celebrations.

The district connects to major cities through road networks and railway lines, with the Bhakra Dam providing hydroelectric power to the region.

The Govind Sagar Lake, formed by the Bhakra Dam on the Sutlej River, extends across the district creating India's largest reservoir.
