Gods created this beautiful valley where each nook and corner has so much to offer in terms of beauty and mystic. Sangla meaning blazing light. It is true to its meaning for as you entre this valley the beauty greets you . It hits you like a blaze of burning sun .

The valley has a rich tradition of culture legends and myths. Hindusim and Buddhism are the main religion in the area.People believe when Pandavas where in exile they had spent some time here , for few findings support this theory.

Polyandry is follwed here i.e. the bridegrooms brothers automatically becomes the husbands of the bride. This was done to protect the name and property of the family from divisions. Though this custom is on the decline.

The beauty of kinnauri women has mentions even in old books where their beauty was used to entice the enemies. Even in folk lore it is said as the people of Kinnaur were knows as Kinners half way between human and gods. Therefore the kinnauri women's beauty would even shake the faith of the saints and devtas.
