Autumn witnesses a 10-day celebration by the Gods - Lord Raghunath, Hadimba Devi, Jamlu - the festival of Dussehra. The celebrations begin when processions of devotees bearing gold and silver images of gods and goddesses move to Kullu from all parts of the valley. An infectious gaiety holds sway over the town as dancing, singing and performances extend well into the nights. On the ninth day, the gods assemble for a Devta Darbar, a court of gods and last day culminates with the symbolic destruction of Ravana.
