A former princely state, Mandi in the state of Himachal Pradesh is located in the banks of the Beas River. This historic city has retained much of its past glory and elegance. Steeped in the grandeur of its past, Mandi has made a flourishing changeover in to an effervescent and bustling city.
Famed for its stone temples, this city has popularly called as the 'Varanasi of Hills'. The majestic palaces and finely carved temples speak out the princely elegance of this pictorial town. Elegant mansions of Victorian era add the charm of this beautiful picnic spot. Mandi is believed to be the place where the great sage 'Mandav' had undertaken his penance and legends say that his reparation was so severe that the rocks were turned black due to it. A swiftly emerging tourist destination, Mandi is an ideal location for shopping. The Tibetan handicrafts and Handlooms put for sale is really eye catching. Holidaying in Mandi proposes an exclusive picture of a thriving city with numerous striking and blessed places to roam in, hot streams with curative characteristics and startling trekking grounds. Apart from the glorious monuments and amazing natural spectacles, Mandi is also renowned for its fairs and festivals. Since most of the temples in this hilly terrain are in the name of Lord Shiva, Mahasivarathri is celebrated here with much pomp and enthusiasm. A write-up of Mandi with out mentioning the much attractive Nalwar Mela would not be fair. The herd of bullocks in colorful makeup steals the show in their credit. The gods have big heartedly bestowed Mandi with awesome beauty. With the lustrous tea plantations, rambling pine and deodar forests, the rich variety of fauna swathed in the imposing peaks, Mandi is a delightful hill station to be explored.
