The GARLI is located at an elevation of 2000 feet (550M) above sea level, it falls in the Kangra
district of the Himachal Pradesh.The heritage village GARLI is ideally suited to explore the Kangra
valley. With its equitable climate, easy access, safe passage and rich flora and fauna, GARLI and its
surroundings offers an ideal location for tourism.
HISTORY:In the early 19th century, following a wearisome war with the Gurkhas, the hill rulers of
the Kangra area were considerably weakened. The wily Sikh ruler of Punjab, Ranjit Singh extended
his domination to include the hill states and for the next 20 years or so the Kangra hills including the
area around GARLI were under the Sikhs. However within 10 years of the death of Ranjit Singh his
state was annexed in 1946 into the British Empire whose rule again brought peace and prosperity.
The soods who had established GARLI saw the opportunities that existed for them when the British
chose Shimla as their summer capital. They went there to set up business, entered government
service and in large numbers joined the armed forces. They amassed wealth and it is authentically
recorded that at one time more than half of Shimla belong to soods of the Kangra valley. In those
days Shimla was the showcase of the British Raj. The only way that an Indian could show back
home that he had indeed arrived was top build monuments, villas and bungalows in his local village,
which for the soods were Garli and GARLI. Thus in both these villages exist magnificent houses
built in the style of Anglo Indian architecture. When it was founded GARLI was a small habitation
around a natural ditch or tank. This tank provided water for cattle and washing but could not be used
for drinking purposes. Drinking water was fetched from a well at Naleti of about a kilometer. When

However, most of the modern day, Indian
villages present a different scenario with
villagers taking up the non-traditional
occupations. They are involved in academics
as teachers; truckers, clerks or getting
engaged with various cottage industries,
regardless of which caste or class they
belong to.
• Another major occupation in Indian villages is
the Cottage Industry. Cottage industry has
emerged as a major source of employment in
Indian villages over the period of time. Many
villagers are occupied in various kinds of art
and crafts works. The villagers produce different
types of handicrafts products and many of them
are earning
their livelihoods by marketing them. The occupations
like pottery, wood, cloth, metal and leather have been
in existence in Indian villages, since the ancient
period and are
found even in the
modern times.
Many Indian
villagers are dependent on these
occupations to earn their
livelihoods.
• Small shops such as vegetable , confectionary , bakery etc. is also an occupation of the
villagers.

However, most of the modern day, Indian
villages present a different scenario with
villagers taking up the non-traditional
occupations. They are involved in academics
as teachers; truckers, clerks or getting
engaged with various cottage industries,
regardless of which caste or class they
belong to.
• Another major occupation in Indian villages is
the Cottage Industry. Cottage industry has
emerged as a major source of employment in
Indian villages over the period of time. Many
villagers are occupied in various kinds of art
and crafts works. The villagers produce different
types of handicrafts products and many of them
are earning
their livelihoods by marketing them. The occupations
like pottery, wood, cloth, metal and leather have been
in existence in Indian villages, since the ancient
period and are
found even in the
modern times.
Many Indian
villagers are dependent on these
occupations to earn their
livelihoods.
• Small shops such as vegetable , confectionary , bakery etc. is also an occupation of the
villagers.

Chateaue garli
The Chateau Garli is located on the
foothills of Dhauladhar mountain range of
the Himalayas, in the heritage village of
Garli built by Lala Mela Ram Sud in 1921.
It fell into a state of disrepair as no one
visited the house for the last 20 years. In
September 2012, Amish Sud, his great
grandson spent a week at Garli and
rediscovered the potential, beauty and
heritage value of the place. Thereafter,
Yatish C. Sud (grandson) and Amish Sud
took up the restoration work, equipping it with modern amenities to turn it into a heritage hotel.
The art work was undertaken by Tarini Sud, the great grand-daughter. 19 rooms hold memories of
another time, with colonial furniture, crystal chandeliers, and contrasting coloured windowpanes that
spill rainbow reflections onto the floor.

surface have been used.
Streets are made of cobbled stone, too, in various patterns.
Similarly, the verandahs; made up of stones are in various patterns

the houses is that they are based on courtyard planning, that is,
rows of houses are arranged around an open to sky courtyard. At
upper floors windows reduce gradually in size.
Half timbered construction

the village for construction of havelis. Half-timber work,
method of building in which external and internal walls are
constructed of timber frames and the spaces between the
structural members are filled with such materials as brick,
plaster, or wattle and daub. Traditionally, a half-timbered
building was made of
squared oak timbers
joined by mortises,
tenons, and wooden
pegs; the building’s cage
like structural skeleton is often
strengthened at the corners with braces. This method of timber
framing was adapted to both low, rambling country homes and
six- or seven-storied buildings in crowded towns. In the 20th
century a modified version of the method was still being used,
in which light sills, studs, and joists only 2 inches (5 cm) thick
are nailed together to make the house’s frame in place of the
old pegged girts, beams, and braces. Where only the decorative
effect of half-timber work is desired, boards are applied to a wall surface in a sham version of the old
structural pattern.

• The path of the sun,controls the height of building, as the
sun is needed for each dwelling unit.
• Small window size and low ceiling height to prevent heat
loss and keep the interiors
warmer.
• Site susceptible to high winds, storms, floods and

DWELLING AS A SOCIO -SPATIAL BUILDING BLOCK
GARLI is a village of mohallas and gallies (streets). A mohalla consists of dwelling units surrounded
by gallies, forming socially coherent system. The interconnecting gallies foster close community
living, a characteristic of a GARLI culture. Rather than a mere mean of communication, they reflect
a variety of everyday human activities of works. Recreation, commerce and informal interactions
make them public places.
The concept of house-neighborhood-settlement system is explicit in Banaras i.e. the house can not be
separated from the mohalla and the mohalla can not be separated from the settlement, being part of
socio-spatial system.

tourism potential there is a strong interest among the local
administration in addressing some of the issues like infrastructure
development, provision of basic facilities, economic sustainability and
visitor management. Moreover, the rich cultural heritage of this place
is suffering, because it has no outlet, the art and craft prevailing in this
region also need a showcase, whereby it can attract tourist as well as
improve the economic status of the villagers, which will stop the
migration of youth to cities.
Now the family has increased and so they need the seprate house to live in so they are building it in
new style. Some are giving their houses on rent and are migrating to the cities.
There are many building in the GARLI in which nobody is living they left their house as it is and
now the house is not in good condition.
Some of the people are not getting job as they there is very
less opportunity of jobs. So they are going outside the

Mud walled houses: The villages have their own life (eat simple, live simple and dress traditionally),
which makes the atmosphere of the village simple, calm and peaceful. In the village, there is no hurdle;
the activities of modern civilization are rarely seen in the village, which indicates they would like to
stay in their own cultural atmosphere. These mud-walled houses are given place to well design
buildings with Single storied or Two-storied. The slates or ridged iron sheets are supported by the

in varying stages of decay. Majority of these buildings are in very bad
condition, because of the historical and cultural strength as well its
tourism potential there is a strong interest among the local
administration in addressing some of the issues like infrastructure
development, provision of basic facilities, economic sustainability and
visitor management. Moreover, the rich cultural heritage of this place
is suffering, because it has no outlet, the art and craft prevailing in this
region also need a showcase, whereby it can attract tourist as well as
improve the economic status of the villagers, which will stop the
migration of youth to cities.
Now the family has increased and so they need the seprate house to live in so they are building it in
new style. Some are giving their houses on rent and are migrating to the cities.
There are many building in the GARLI in which nobody is living they left their house as it is and
now the house is not in good condition.
Some of the people are not getting job as they there is very
less opportunity of jobs. So they are going outside the
village. They settle outside.In the old times the structure was
of 2 storied.The shop were there in the ground floorAnd
resident on the first floor.
Mud walled houses: The villages have their own life (eat simple, live simple and dress traditionally),
which makes the atmosphere of the village simple, calm and peaceful. In the village, there is no hurdle;
the activities of modern civilization are rarely seen in the village, which indicates they would like to
stay in their own cultural atmosphere. These mud-walled houses are given place to well design
buildings with Single storied or Two-storied. The slates or ridged iron sheets are supported by the
bamboo wood. The outer walls of the houses are built of bricks, stones or pressed clay. The doors and
windows are made of 'tunni', 'ber' and/or 'simbal' wood. For the single-storied houses the roofs are flat

CHATEAUE GARLI
The Chateau Garli is located on the foothills of Dhauladhar mountain range of the Himalayas, in the
heritage village of Garli built by Lala Mela Ram Sud in 1921. It fell into a state of disrepair as no one
visited the house for the last 20 years. In September 2012, Amish Sud, his great grandson spent a week at
Garli and rediscovered the potential, beauty and heritage value of the place. Thereafter, Yatish C. Sud
(grandson) and Amish Sud took up the restoration work, equipping it with modern amenities to turn it
into a heritage hotel. The art work was undertaken by Tarini Sud, the great grand-daughter. Its 19 rooms
hold memories of another time, with colonial furniture, crystal chandeliers, and contrasting coloured
windowpanes that spill rainbow reflections onto the floor.
Owners of chateaue garli retained the essence of the original structure, only adding modern amenities to suit
travellers of today. Yatish also built a new wing that overlooks the swimming pool. Prepare to be dazzled by
the striking red, blue, green and yellow windowpanes in this building, which create a dramatic effect once the
sun sets and the lights come on indoors. It reminded me of a grand cathedral with stained-glass windows.
Tarini added an artistic touch by painting delicate designs around doorways and along the walls in the
bedrooms.
The old house has a wealth of items from a bygone era. A gramophone and large wooden radio in the living
room brought back memories of my grandfather’s home. Don’t forget to look up as you explore the interiors
or you’ll miss the beautiful blue and red Belgian chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. A large copper platter,
known as Chamba thal, adorns one wall in the living room. It depicts the 10 avatars of Lord Vishnu and was
used during religious and cultural ceremonies. A cabinet in a corner contains a set of ivory handled knives
engraved with Yatish’s great grandfather’s initials. Notice the door handles in the dining room – they’re
shaped like peacocks, as are the light fixtures in the living room. Pop in to the reception to check out the organ
and a telephone that looks more like an old accounting machine.
