    History

    Peora's history is intertwined with the Kumaon region's rich cultural heritage. Historically, it was a small agricultural village, its economy primarily based on fruit cultivation and farming. Over time, as Mukteshwar gained popularity as a tourist destination, Peora gradually emerged as a quieter, more secluded alternative. While not steeped in grand historical events, Peora's significance lies in its preservation of traditional Kumaoni lifestyle and architecture. The local communities have maintained their cultural practices and continue to live in harmony with nature. Its history is a story of simple living and sustainable practices, a contrast to the rapidly developing world.
