Hari Kothi, named after Lord Vishnu, is a historic property in Dharamshala, India.

The estate was bought by Raja Brij Mohan Pal in the name of his wife Rani Ratten Dei of Kutlehar from an English person after her marriage to Raja Brij Mohan Pal of Kutlehar. The other lands around Hari Kothi belonged to Raja Ram Pal of Kutlehar, grandfather of Raja Brij Mohan Pal.[citation needed]

Hari Kothi is constructed in the traditional Himalayan technique of ‘dhajji’ and is one of the oldest buildings in the region.[citation needed]

The estate has been the hub of social activity for over a century,[citation needed] and has hosted several Heads of State, Princes, Princesses and other guests.[citation needed] Swami Vivekananda stayed here during his visit to the hill station in 1897.[citation needed]

All the rooms in Hari Kothi have wooden flooring, antique furniture, photographs from royal India and objects of historic significance.[citation needed]

The four acre mature gardens are home to a number of species of Himalayan birds and plants, a natural water spring and have views of the Kangra valley.
