Mana Village, situated at an average height of 3,200 meters in Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district, is known as the last Indian village before the Indo-Tibetan border. Surrounded by the snowy Himalayas and located just 3 kilometres away from Badrinath, it is a peaceful place where nature and old traditions are found together.
It is believed that Sage Vyasa wrote the epic Mahabharata here in a cave, and Lord Ganesha helped him by writing it down in a nearby cave. Along with this beautiful experience, you can also visit the Bheem Pul, a huge natural rock bridge made by Bheem for Draupadi to cross the Saraswati River.
There are several other popular attractions to visit near Mana Village, including the holy Badrinath Temple, the beautiful Vasudhara Falls, peaceful Satopanth Lake, and the stunning Neelkanth Peak. If you enjoy trekking or mountain views, Mana Pass and the surrounding trails are perfect for you. It’s also home to the popular “Last Tea Shop of India,” where travellers halt for sipping chai and snapping pictures.
Mana is a colourful village with small stone houses, wooden windows, and friendly people who embrace traditional clothing and a humble way of living. Whether you're on a religious journey or looking for peace away from the city, Mana village offers a special experience that stays in your heart.
