• Before it was categorized as village development committee but before approximately 16 years it has been categorized as Vyas Municipality.

This place has lot of natural beauty. It has green forests and clean river flowing. Besides this recreational aspects, people visit Damauli because of religious aspect too. Damauli is the birth place of Vedvyas who is the writer of veds and purans. I suggest everybody to visit Damauli who really want to feel and experience the real beauty of nature. Vyas cave is historically important because it is believed that Vyas rishi lived over here.
