Kullu and Cannabis

Kullu is well known for its temples, rich crafts, finely embossed shawls and cultural festivals that enliven the intense fervor of localites for their respected deities and age old customs. You can feel the chilling winds whistling across the vergant expanse of apple orchards and fruit gardens nearby. Kullu is also called "The Fruit Basket of North India" for its abundant produce of apple and plum. But one thing that adds an illicit profanity to Kullu is "Cannabis" or Charas. It's easy and it's accessible here, thus eluding a lot of foreigners that come here in search for those intimate moments in narcotic-highs. They love lurking the narrow alleys through wild cannabis. A confluence of regions enthralling beauty with celestial highs of Charas, it's a bumper bonanza for tourists and they don't seem to miss the brigade.
