Manu Temple in Old Manali is a peaceful and spiritually rich shrine dedicated to Sage Manu, the legendary figure believed to be the first human and the author of Manusmriti. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the town, the temple is surrounded by cedar trees, fresh mountain air, and stunning views of the Beas River valley.

 

Reaching the temple involves a short uphill walk through narrow village paths, offering a glimpse of local Himachali life. Its traditional wooden architecture, stone carvings, and calm ambience make it a perfect place for travellers looking to slow down and soak in the natural beauty of the mountains. The silence here feels soothing, and many visitors come just to sit, meditate, or enjoy the scenic charm. Manu Temple is not only a religious site but also a peaceful retreat where you can connect with nature, culture, and the spiritual roots of Manali.

 

Visitors love coming here not just to pray but also to sit in the calm surroundings, take photos, and enjoy the fresh mountain air. During festivals, especially the Hadimba Devi Fair, the whole area becomes lively with music, colours, and local traditions. Whether you are a nature lover, a spiritual traveller, or someone who enjoys history, Hadimba Devi Temple offers a beautiful mix of culture, serenity, and Himalayan charm that stays with you long after your visit.
