Information about Almora

For many years, Almora was ruled by the Katyuri king, Baichaldeo. Almora was not established until it remained under his possession. It was only in 1568 that the town of Almora was formed when Baichaldeo donated the larger chunk of the land of Almora to Sri Chand Tiwari, a Gujararti Brahmin Sri Chand Tiwari. Almora remained the capital of the Chand dynasty, and the cultural capital of Kumaon until then. The culture, food and festivals were inspired by the Kumaon style in the lifestyle of the people. History of Almora can be easily discovered in its ancient monuments, temples and museums which have protected the heritage since a long time. One of the famous historical places include Govind Ballabh Pant Museum which displays a huge stack of artefacts, paintings, sculptures and weapons that date back to the 2nd Century AD. There are two famous temples Nanda Devi temple and Kasar Devi temple, dedicated to the mountain goddesses.

Almora Travel Guide

Almora is easily accessible by road, rail and air. Once you reach Almora, take the road route for sightseeing. Head to the famous Nana Devi temple and marvel at the imposing architecture of the temple. After that, visit the Kasar Devi temple which is seated on a hill top and offers stunning views of the Hawabagh Highway. Plan the evening time for exploring the markets and local town of Almora. Enjoy the early morning view by heading to Simtola or Martola, and experience scenery at its best in Almora.

Famous & local food of Almora

Almora offers a platter of delicious dishes that you must try at least once. The local dishes of Almora are also the authentic ones of Uttarakhand. A whole lot of effort goes into making these exclusive dishes. Some of the must-try dishes in Almora include Bal Mithai, famous sweet of Almora made out of diary, Choklate which is a fudge-like sweet dish made up of condensed milk and Singauri which is again a dairy product wrapped around a Malu leaf. Some of the other local dishes to try in Almora are Bhang Ki Khatai, Kappa (a green curry), mixed dal salad, Sisunak Saag, Aloo ke Gutke, Aloo Dal Pakora and Rus.

For those hippie travellers especially, stop by the tiny café run by Baba and Uma. Chef’s specialty here includes the Apple crumble cake and Lemon nana.

Anup's 3 days trip to Almora

Hotel in bhimtal is good but not the other one in almora. Itinerary Planning can be even better..as most of the time on 2nd day went away in travelling and with very difficulty was able to see one place. However, travel triangle team was responsive all the time and addressed all issues in time. Cab

driver was very supportive and took care well

Prateek's 3 days trip to Almora

All things were good in trip but only regret with Hotel room. It was too small compare than others hotels like you just enter and over. Bed is also too small to accommodate 3 persons (male, female and 2 yrs child) Ambience of resort and peacefulness.

Dr's 6 days trip to Almora

Booked a trip for Uttarakhand (Nainital Ranikhet Almora Kausani) within a very short notice. Arrangements made by tripsailer.com was awesome. Everything went smooth starting from stays upto conveyance.. all the hotels were just fantastic with perfect hill view.. just didn't like the cottage at Ranik

het..its location was also not so good..far away from main city, though view was good but the hotel packed in service, maintenance and food. Stay in nainital was the best part, near the mall road with perfect lake and hill view..loved the place..

Arnabb

Arnabb's 4 days trip to Almora

The best hotel was Kaushani best inm, would request hotels in Munsiyari and Ranikhet to arrange for pedestal stand fans. The weather was extreme even in the hills Enjoyed the trip!
