A magnificent place, I liked the estate located on the side of the mountain, planted with many different trees, bushes, herbs, fruit trees and architectural structures
Came a couple of hours before closing, there was no queue
Deeply plunged into the atmosphere of the Roerich family

Nicholas Roerich was one of the great Russian artists. It so happened that in India, namely here in Naggar, he stayed forever.
The art gallery was created in his house, where he lived and worked.
If you are a lover of art, history and a true patriot of Russia, then this place is a must-see.
There is also a museum of science and culture of the Roerichs. Near the garden, the view from which is simply divine, below Naggar, around the mountain in the clouds.

The view from the roerich gallery mesmerizing the entire mind and body also great for an art lover but boring for those who doesn't like art or books much.also this will cost you rs 50 as an entry fees which I found Little costly because there is nothing more to see.in his house

Art gallery housed in the estate of the late Nicholas Roerich, renowned Russian painter & artist.
The medium sized wooden stone building set in a high hill near Naggar, is worth a visit. It houses a range of paintings done in cardboard on the ground floor & showcases the living quarters of the Roerich family on the first floor.

It's a place to be if you are interested in art. His art is from a different age and of different view point. I was taken aback by how cohesive was his work on Nagar village. Not a single straight house still the whole village looked vibrant and beautiful. It's pretty well maintained by the trust, there's always room for improvement.the garden is well maintained.
Even the mandir has old statues ones we don't see so often these days.
If nothing else view of the mountains from the place is breathtaking. The air is so fresh you would just like to sit and enjoy there.

Have to buy tickets at entry gate 50 rupees per person.
Nothing special to see. Some old instruments to watch and some photographs (not originals)

Really liked this place.situated at very Luss green place, very quite and so many beautiful paintings.

Nicholas Roerich was one of the great artists and scientist stayed here in naggar forever. This art gallery is created in his home where he used to stay back in time.
If you are art and history lover then this is the best place for to explore.
Also just ahead of this art gallery there is Roerich science and culture museums too.

Nothing to rave about. Only good thing to write home about. 1- the surrounding 2- Approach road. Rest everything is ordinary.
1. We reached there just before their closing time. They were not allowing us in, though we had bought the tickets. On pleading they allowed us in. They were supposed to open Devika Rani's display room at 1.30. Did not because the lady in charge left without handing over the key to somebody. With the result we left without seeing the display room at 1.45pm!
2. Urinals are smelly. Though entry fees are charged for the upkeep, this place of prime importance is neglected.
3. Items kept on display are not labelled. For eg a grinder mixer like thing is kept outside without any name or title. Nobody there to explain. Lady selling tickets for patrons clicking pics does not know a thing.
So my opinion is climbing so high and not finding what is on display speaks volume about it's upkeep.

Really good place. You can observe the house of the Nicholas through windows. Ticket is Rs 50 for art gallery and Rs 30 for watching paintings at museum. You are not allowed to take pictures inside the art gallery.

This place is so awesome just for how secluded it is from the noise of the real world. We visited this place on a Misty rainy day and it just added beauty to this hidden gem. We got to learn about Roerich and his contributions, along with the museum close by, this was a treat and a perfect way to spend some calm and nice time!

A great place for art enthusiasts. The surroundings are beautiful with lush greenery and set amid majestic mountains
