An Insight into Hamirpur Tourism

Sitting near the banks of River Beas, Hamirpur is one of the lesser explored destinations in Himachal. The place is named after the famous ruler of Katoch Dynasty, Raja Hamir Chand who reigned the region between 1700 and 1740 AD. Dotted with serene spots and captivating vistas of enchanting scenery, no wonder, the quaint little hill resort is rightly christened as a nature lover’s paradise. Majestic mountains, utmost serenity, tranquil aura and an endless adventure is what makes Hamirpur a delight for every traveller.

Hamirpur holds the reputation of being a prominent religious centre in Himachal. The town is peppered with a number of temples and shrines.

Those travelling to the little gem of Hamirpur in pursuit of some sightseeing or historical exploration, must not miss an expedition to the historic site of Sujanpur Tira. Once the magnificent capital of the Katoch Rulers, the place is now home to remnants of a palace-fort and beautiful old temples that remind of the town’s glorious past; some of the finest frescoes and paintings belonging to the famous Kangra School of Miniature Paintings still adorn the palace walls and leave the visitors enthralled with their sheer brilliance of art and craftsmanship.
