Naggar, Himachal Pradesh

Naggar is a settlement in Kullu district, a hillside village with traditional architecture and narrow, winding streets. Houses follow local building styles with wooden verandas and pitched roofs, while a castle ruin overlooks the area from above.

The village grew as a trading post along ancient routes connecting Himalayan valleys. A castle was built during the medieval period, and its ruins still define the landscape today.

The settlement shows its character through traditional woodcarving and textile work that appears in local homes and small workshops throughout the area. You can watch craftspeople at work and see how these handmade goods are woven into daily life here.

The village sits at elevation, so some paths are steep and sturdy shoes are recommended. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable visiting conditions with mild and dry weather.

The place holds several art galleries and craft workshops run by local artists that are not always easy to find. These tucked-away spaces offer glimpses into contemporary artistic work away from the main tourist paths.
