For tis festival, advance booking is important as its hard to find ticket on same day. In case you want to try your luck, reach the place before 1 Hr at least. Most of the shows are at 7:00 pm, so reach by 6:00 pm and register yourself in waiting list !!!



I don't want to share the story of 'Vanbhatt ki Atmakatha' here... but in short I enjoyed it... Pure Hindi play and some of very typical hindi words are used in various dialogs... and there are some awesome jokes at regular time intervals :)



I was again amazed to see the theater talent and now I have started recognizing these folks.. Most of the artists in this play were their in Begum ka takiya last year !!!



Duration of this was 2:00 Hrs and there was a break of 10 minutes !!!



If you want to buy advanced tickets for future shows, timings are 11:00 am to 4:00 pm @ NSD, Mandi House, Near Metro Station !!!



Last year I got to know about the event through Delhievents.com but this time it was not listed there.. It was sad :( 



I have seen lot many plays in past but dresses used in this one were most colorful ever !!!



This time shows are taking place at Kamani Auditorium in Mandi House and Sammukh Auditorium inside National School of Drama, Delhi !!!



If you have never seen any theater performance till date, Summer Theater festival is the best time to witness some of the best plays of the year !!!



Last year I went for 'Begum ka Takiya' and liked it so much... Finally planned again with other set of friends :)

Main places to see & Top things to do around Dalhousie : Stunning Hill Station in Himalayan State of India

  Dalhousie is one of the most popular Hill Stations in Himachal  and there is lot to explore around Dalhousie. This is small and very well maintained town in Chamba region of Himachal Pradesh . This Photo Journey shares some of the exciting places around Chamba and how to plan a good one day tour through Khajjiar, Chamba & Chamera etc. CHAMERA HYDROLIC PROJECT Chamera Hydroelectric Project is located in Banikhet, 7 kms from Dalhousie. The water body near the lake is very scenic and is a popular boating spot. Chamera Dam is around 40 kilometers from Chamba Town. It takes approximately 1.5 hrs to reach the place is road condition is good. Overall it’s a little dry terrain as compared to Dalhousie and Khajjiar. And temperature also goes up as we go towards Chamera Dam.  As you move out from Chamba town, you follow Ravi river for some time and then take right. After 45 minutes of drive, you get a glimpse of Chemera Dam.
