Das Studio

This studio was said to be one of the oldest studios located in the Darjeeling Mall Road. Their collections on the world's highest mountains are stunning, and the pictures are fairly priced for purchase.

I got a landscape picture of Kanchenjunga and they packed it nicely for air travel.

I really felt the peace and calmness as soon as I entered the studio. Though it's but chaotic outside. As soon as we enter the studio, it gives lot of joy to the soul. Breathtaking photographs and art pieces.
Kindly do not bargain if you are buying anything from that place. It's an artists temple.

Last of the standing studios from the colonial era. Though, financially unstable, the studio still maintains its dimming dignity. My better half took a portrait of me standing in front of the DHR toy-train engine's 1: 72 scale model.

A shop which is going to complete a Century without major change should I need to say anything about it? I was posted during 1989- 1996 it really memorable span of my life. DAS STUDIO is one of course.

Unnecessarily costly/over-priced. Paid Rs. 200 for the print of 8 passport size photographs. Later got the same done on Rs. 30 from another shop

Pious of a place for a place for a photographer and mountain lover. Been a frequent visitor of Darjeeling during my childhood, and being a landscape photography lover, I have always been fond of this place and their prints. None of my visits to Darjeeling were complete without visiting this place and buying a couple of postcards from here. I remember buying my first camera here.
