Om
Raske fakta: Når portene slås opp om kvelden forvandles den vitpussede 1800-tallsbygningen til scene for alt fra kathakali til jazz. Festivalen her har blitt arrangert siden 1975 og rommer i sine beste uker over hundre programposter med artister fra hele verden.
Høydepunkter: Bygningen er faktisk ikke et museum, den lever fortsatt: forfatterkvelder, danseteater og musikk pågår inne i de kongelige salene året rundt. Kveldene her har en særlig ladning, når lysslynger tennes i greinverket og publikum breder ut tepper på plenen mens trommerytmer eker gjennom trærne.
Insidertips
- Sit in the shade toward the back edge of the park, where you hear best and the evening sun won't hit your screen.
- Bring a sitting blanket or air cushion, the grass quickly feels damp as evening falls.
- Photograph the facade from the southwest when the sun is low, then the white plaster glows against the dark trees.
- On weekdays before 4 PM the lawn is almost empty of people, perfect for a quiet stroll before the evening performances.
