 Introduction
The velvety meadows, gurgling streams, snow capped peaks and the thick canopy of Deodar forests of Himachal Pradesh draws thousands of tourists, mountaneers, trekkers and adventure freaks every year. But that is not all that is there to Himachal Pradesh. The colorful people that reside these heights are equally colorful and of a creative sort, which accounts for the wide array of handicrafts and artefacts that find their place in the shop windows in this region that are notorious for baffling tourists with their beauty and variety. Kullu-Manali is not an exception to this phenomenon. Shopping in Kullu-Manali is therefore fun, if you know the exactly what to buy and where from. However, while shopping in Kullu-Manali you must learn to keep your feet firmly on the ground and your eyes set on your budget, lest you leap over it.
