Main Attractions:

Gurudwara Manikaran Sahib: This is the primary attraction. It is a revered pilgrimage site for Sikhs. The Gurudwara is famous for its natural hot springs, where the Langar (community kitchen food) is cooked using the geothermal heat. You can take a dip in the hot springs, which are believed to have healing properties.

Hot Springs: Experience the unique phenomenon of the hot water springs, which contain sulfur and are believed to have medicinal benefits. Separate bathing areas are available for men and women.

Ram Temple and Shiva Temple: Pay a visit to the ancient Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Rama and Lord Shiva, located within the same complex.
