Is it fair to charge ₹200 for entry fee at Chambal Riverfront?

I am not the one to decide that. I am just showing you ticket charges for some activities:

• Average ‘movie’ ticket price in Rajasthan: ₹300
• Average ticket amount for ‘palaces’ in Rajasthan: ₹300/person
• Average ticket amount for ‘forts’ in Rajasthan: ₹100/person

Based on the monuments, musical fountain show, activities (folk dance, magic shows), architectural brilliance & ambience that Chambal Riverfront offers, you can decide whether it is fair to charge ₹200/person for Chambal Riverfront entry. Let me know your thoughts in comments box.

I don’t like this: Major shows or activities starts in the evening, around the same time. These shows happens at a distance, so enjoying all the shows is difficult.

Which Chambal Riverfront side is more beautiful?

East side of Chambal River front is more beautiful. It has many beautiful monuments that can blow your mind.

Which Chambal Riverfront side should I visit first?

If you arrive at Chambal River front around 5 PM then visit West side first. Finish the tour fast.

By the time of 6 PM or 6:30 PM, move to east side. East side has more beautiful attractions, shows, activities that looks gorgeous at the night.
