History Of Nadaun
Pragpur, Himachal Pradesh, India
Sub Place Details: Nadaun is a historical gem nestled on the left bank of the Beas River in the Hamirpur district. Once the summer capital of the princely state of Kangra under the reign of Maharaja Sansar Chand, the town carries an aura of royal nostalgia. The name Nadaun is often associated with t he phrase "Aaye Nadaun, Jaye Kaun," meaning "Who comes to Nadaun would never want to leave," highlighting its irresistible charm. Historically, it is significant for the Battle of Nadaun in 1691, where Guru Gobind Singh and the hill rajas defeated the Mughal forces. The town is a melting pot of spirituality, with the presence of the Gurudwara Dashmesh Asthan and the ancient Bilkaleshwar Mahadev Temple. The riverside setting provides a serene backdrop for those looking to escape the hustle of urban life.

The local culture is vibrant, reflected in the folk songs and the simple lifestyle of the people. Nadaun also serves as a gateway to several pilgrimage sites and is known for its high literacy rate and agricultural richness. The town's economy is bolstered by its position on the national highway, making it a bustling hub for trade. For history buffs, the ruins of the Nadaun Fort offer a glimpse into the strategic importance of this region in the 18th century. The lush green surroundings and the rhythmic sound of the Beas River flowing nearby create a meditative atmosphere.
