About Raghunath Temple in Kullu

Kullu is also known as the “Valley of Gods” because it is home to a lot of temples that reflect Hindu Mythology and the rich culture that Himachal Pradesh has. Raghunath Temple in Kullu is located at a height of two thousand and fifty-six meters above the sea level. As per the mythology, this majestic temple was constructed by Raja Jagat Singh as a piece of apology in regards to his sins. Reflecting the rich culture of Himachal Pradesh, this attraction is not famous as a religious place but also for the astonishing beauty around it; thus, attracting a huge number of tourists every year.    

History of Raghunath Temple

The Raghunath Temple in Kullu is dedicated to Lord Rama and was built by Raja Jagat Singh in the year 1660. This holy temple is situated on a hillock that gives a magnificent view of the valley. Legend has it that a Brahmin in the Valley came upon a lot of pearls, from an undisclosed source. Raja Jagat Singh sent his troops to get those pearls by torturing the Brahmin and his family members. The Brahmin chose to set his house on fire and killed himself and the entire family. The king was distressed to know that he committed such a sin. To get over his guilt, he paid a visit to Shri Kishan Dass Ji Panihari who advised him to build a temple of Lord Rama.

Importance of Raghunath Temple

Dedicated to Lord Ram, it is believed that Raghunath Temple has the same idol as was used by the Raja Jagat Singh, which makes this attraction even more significant in the eyes of the locals of the town. The style and architecture of this place are really worth exploring. The best time to visit this place is during the autumn season. Surrounded by the beautiful sceneries, Raghunath Temple in Kullu is something that one should not miss visiting. People from all over the world come to see this historic temple because of the rich history it has. Its picturesque beauty and enchanting architecture attract people to visit this temple of Lord Rama. Along with the spellbinding beauty of Kullu, a visit to this place gives the soul a soothing experience. This is also amongst the best places to visit in Kullu and hence it should be on the priority list if one is falling short of time. There are a number of temples in the  region, but Raghunath Temple in Kullu has its own prominence and recognition.

Amitkumar's 12 days trip to Kullu

For Travel in Ease team: We did a 10 day trip with travel on ease from manali to amritsar covering kasol, bir, dharmshala and Dalhousie in between. They provided us with amazing service with a private cab that was with us throughout these ten days and 5 days of hotel stay in which breakfast and dinner was included. The properties that they booked were good except for Dharamshala however food included at each of the properties is worth mentioning. They had a well planned itinerary in which they covered all the attraction points. We had a couple trip and we were so much at ease because of their service. Also will like to say that the driver Ajay Thakur that we got is the best. So professional and humble. If we ever travel to north again we will go with travel ease. Special shout out to Baby Dharta for planning and coordinating the trip. Cheers to Sahil from Admin team and again Ajay for being an amazing driver cum guide. For Travel triangle team: Service needs to improve as there was no person from TT team to coordinate with throughout the trip, kept on calling but no response!

Mardiaakshay's 8 days trip to Kullu

Amazing Trip experience with you all...Specially the Welina Grand Manali Hotel the candle light dinner was done very nicely. Just the complain was of Dharamshala Hotel the room was not so good as compared to all other locations which I want to share. Staff was good everywhere just the hotel at Dharmshala was looking like a Homestay which we didn't like. Rest it was the best memorable trip. And I would recommend Travel Talkies to everyone. And I would also recommend everyone who choose Travel Talkies to go with Driver Ravi Sharma only. He is the best driver and guide I have ever seen. His Speed with judgement and his nature is superb. And very co-operative & Friendly driver who take care of us as his own family members and guide through various things.

Dubeymohit's 6 days trip to Kullu

Had a wonderful trip, stay was awesome but cab driver behavior was not friendly at all . He was smoking through out trip outside of cab but the smell of it was very bad. He was very rude , if we ask him to go to any place he just start giving excuses. He even bought Liquor not sure if he had it or not. Snow fall at manali and shimla was lifetime memory for us.

Jayanta's 7 days trip to Kullu

Our trip was initially Organised by Pallavi, she gave her best time to make fit as per my request. Since we were travelling with a 3year kid, I request her to make a comfortable itinerary with maximum coverage and I happy to share that she was able to deliver the same. On trip coordination from @Shivam was also good, at last moment he suggested to change one hotel, which I believe correct decision when we saw the location of previous hotel. Overall it's a very satisfactory trip, I will give 9 out of 10. Only things I believe need to improve food quality and varieties in hotels, every next day their food menu was repeating. If we stay for there nights we have to eat same menu for two nights, same things I face for both the hotels in Dalhousie and Mcleodganj.

Psk's 4 days trip to Kullu

We all enjoyed the trip very much. They arranged a tour package for us and provided us with a good experienced driver and good hotels. We did not get a good hotel in Shimla due to the lack of communication by the package provider. We had a lot of trouble there. However, Shivam garu, the management head, spoke and gave us a small connection in the package. Finally we were very happy. Thanks ideal tour's & travel's
