The story
Discover Pragpur
Pragpur was declared India’s first Heritage Village by the Himachal Pradesh government in December 1997, and it earns the label — cobbled streets, a village pond (the Taal), and houses built in a genuine mix of Kangra, Rajput, British, Portuguese and Italian styles, laid out by the Kuthiala Sud clan from the 17th century onward. The Judge’s Court, a 1918 ancestral home turned heritage stay, anchors the village.
