    Kareng Ghar’s high rise towers give sweeping views of the surrounding hills, and the open air galleries catch the October light from the west, creating long, dramatic shadows on the stone façades. Rang Ghar’s vaulted arches are more subtle; the light falls more evenly on the interior walls, which is great for detail shots but less dramatic for silhouettes. Talatal Ghar’s low profile and surrounding greenery give a softer, more intimate feel, but the sun comes through the trees creating dappled patterns rather than stark contrast. If you’re after bold, high angle shots with strong contrast, Kareng Ghar is the better choice. After a day of shooting you might want to unwind at HOTEL GULMOHAR GRAND, which is a short drive away and has comfortable rooms for a solo photographer.
