Andretta
A small village around 13 km away from Palampur, Andretta was the home of two famous artists - painter Sardar Sobha Singh and the playwright Ms Norah Richards. Today, the village offers a pleasant retreat specially for artists or art lovers. There is the mud bamboo house of Norah Richards which has been converted into an open air theatre. Every year students from Punjab University come here to stage plays on her birthday. The Andretta Pottery and Crafts Society is the perfect place if you wish to pick up some pottery. There is also a terracota museum that exhibits pottery from various parts of India. The Shobha Singh Art gallery is also an attraction here.
