Manali was populated by nomadic hunters in the
ancient time, known as 'Rakshas'. After the Rakshas,
Shepherds came to the valley and started doing
agriculture. 'Naur or 'nar' are the earliest
neighbours of the region, a unique caste to Kullu
valley. British had introduced apples to the valley.
Now plum, pear and apples are the best sources of
income of its inhabitants.
In 1980 militancy rise in Kashmir, so Manali
increased their tourism by making lots of hotels,
restaurants, transform the villages in towns etc.
It's a myth that when the flood deluged earth, god
Vishnu in his seventh avatar of giant fish, saved
Manu and provide him land, i.e. Manali. It's true or
not but Manali is fairly beautiful place. In British
Colonial times, due to the climate and nature beauty
of Manali, British started coming to this pretty
place, so Manali is becoming a popular tourist
destination since last 1970s.
Now after two and a half decades Manali has became a
base camp for trekkers and mountaineers, families,
new married couples prefers to go to Manali for in
every season to enjoy the beauty of the nature.
