History of Chitkul

Chitkul is a peaceful community with a sizable population. Despite the fact that the region is far from any metro/city lifestyle, the people here live a decent and humble life. They still believe in the stories that have circulated for centuries.

Many people believe that Chitkul was the last place the Pandavas sought refuge during their exile. This belief drew Hindus to this location, and they became residents, and Chitkul became a Hindu town.

However, a small number of people migrated from the Tibetan region and sought refuge in Chitkul. They spread Buddhist teachings, which is how Chitkul has a mix of Hindu and Buddhist families and cultures.
