The district stretches from the village of Rampur in the south to the Rohtang Pass in the North. The largest valley in the district is called the Kullu Valley, which is also known as the Valley of the Gods. There is also a town called Kullu which sits on the banks of the Beas River in the central part of the valley. From the confluence of the Parvati River with the River Beas, the Parvati Valley runs eastwards, through a steep-sided valley from the town of Bhuntar. Another important valley in the district is the Lug valley where the main forest contractors have been extracting timber from the forests for the last 150 years and continue to do so today.[1] Farther north lies the town of Manali. The ancient seat of the kings of Kullu was at Naggar Castle, about 12 km north of the present town, and thought to have been built in the early 17th century by Raja Sidh Sing. Raja Jagat Singh (1637–72) moved the capital in the middle of the 17th century to its present position, and called it Sultanpur. The Royal compound consists of the "Rupi Palace, several temples, and a long narrow bazaar descending the hill." The British took all of Kangra and Kullu from the Sikhs in 1846. It is still used as home by the royal descendants, but the more ancient Naggar Castle was sold to the British. Since the onset of the most recent unrest in Kashmir, Manali and the Kullu Valley in general, have become important destinations for tourists escaping the summer heat of India. In the eastern part of the district, the village of Manikaran contains Sikh and Hindu temples and popular hot springs. The Hidimba Devi Temple is at Manali. There are also many Sikh villages located close to Manikaran. To the northeast of Kullu Valley, lies the famous, Malana Valley. {{commons category|Kullu district}}Demographics{{bar box|title=Religions in Kullu District |titlebar=#Fcd116 |left1=Religion |right1=Percent |float=right |bars={{bar percent|Hinduism|orange|94.92}}{{bar percent|Islam|green|0.68}} }} According to the 2011 census Kullu district has a population of 437,474,[2] roughly equal to the nation of Malta.[3] This gives it a ranking of 553rd in India (out of a total of 640).[2] The district has a population density of {{convert| 79 |PD/sqkm|PD/sqmi}} .[2] Its population growth rate over the decade 2001-2011 was 14.65%.[2] Kullu has a sex ratio of 942 females for every 1000 males,[2] and a literacy rate of 80.14%.[2] en General Information
