The population of Manali was 8,096 in 2011, according to the Indian census. As the entryway to the Lahaul and Spiti region as well as the city of Leh in Ladakh, Manali is a well-liked tourist destination in India. After the Santan lawgiver Manu (see Manusmriti), Manali was given its name. Manu-Alaya, which translates to "the abode of Manu," is thought to be the source of the name Manali.

Hindu theology holds that Manu emerged from his ark in Manali to resurrect humanity after a massive flood had submerged the entire planet. The "Valley of the Gods" is another name for the Kullu Valley, where Manali is located. A historic temple to the sage Manu is located in an old village in the city. ..
