A beautiful cricket ground. The view is Stunning and Breathtaking. It has seating capacity of 23,000. The ground has a snow capped background which is nothing but the Dauladhar hill range. The stadium hosts various national and international tournaments.

HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala turned out to be an interesting visit for us. The stadium, set against the backdrop of scenic mountains, creates a unique vibe. Even if you're not a big cricket fan, the location itself is worth checking out. The view from the stadium is pretty spectacular, making it a good stop during our time in Dharamshala.

Best cricket ground which I saw in my entire lifetime. Deserves 5 star. It’s beautiful. The ground is maintained properly. Atmosphere is serene. And the mountains surrounding no doubt looks very very nice. One of the best cricket grounds of the world. I saw a Worldcup match held here at October 10 2023.

This is obviously the most beautiful Cricket Stadium of the entire world and guess what it's in our own state.
Himachal Dhauladhar view
Players will definitely get confused, how to focus in the game because you have all around so beautiful views of the mountains.
Dharmashala is really amazing

Would have loved to experience a cricket match played at this ground.

Took the visitor stand ticket and the view was surreal, couldn't have asked for any better view.

It was exactly as I expected it to be.

HPCA stadium stands out for its scenic beauty, offering a unique experience to cricket enthusiasts. The snow-capped peaks that surround the stadium create a mesmerizing atmosphere for both players and spectators.The ground itself is well-maintained and boasts excellent facilities. The pitch generally favors fast bowlers due to the bouncy nature of the surface, making it an intriguing battleground for competitive cricket matches. The infrastructure and amenities for spectators are commendable, providing a comfortable viewing experience.
#One of the standout features of this stadium is its stunning view, with the mighty Dhauladhar Range looming over the stadium, creating a postcard-perfect setting for cricket matches. The cool climate adds to the charm, making it a refreshing change from the usual cricketing venues.

Beautiful cricket stadium. You can visit this stadium paying 30/- when there are match going on. They allow tourists to visit the gallery and see this beautiful ground.

If the Gods were to play cricket...this would be there home ground.

Over the past 10 years this ground has seen some drastic improvements with it now becoming the most scenic , apart from the highest, cricket ground in the world. The ambience is terrific, weather amazing, and apart from a few niggles on ground (something which almost all Indian grounds have) this stadium is perfect. I had got the opportunity to watch the India New Zealand rubber in ICC world cup 2023, and boy what an experience it was. Memorable and unforgettable. A must visit for anyone who is visiting this region. Hats off to HPCA 👏

Beautifully built stadium 🏟🏟🏟 with fantabulous view of mountains,,there was great rush when we visited there but it was worth it as everything was so incredibly good 😊all the visitors have to buy tickets first which I think ranger fron 25-50 rs only

One of the best and beautiful places to visit on a dharamshala trip.It is a colourful stadium with a scenic beauty of dhauladhar mountains that complements the beauty of stadium .only one part of the main stadium is open to the public for sight seeing .It is more of a photogenic place to fill the albums with coloured pictures.
Also i must say ,the stadiums cleanliness was unbeatable.

They said it's the most beautiful stadium in the world.... Well they were not lying... Snow capped mountains and watching India Win... The best moments.... well added few fog pics as well which hit the ground during the game

Only Con : In the east stand i watched from had only one exit and it was pretty narrow as well.... It was difficult to get out for washrooms or to buy snacks for everyone....

Imagine this "a sports arena, at the summit of a mountain which is itself dwarfed by the himalayas". The true setting of this stadium will surpass even what you've imagined.

Maybe I am being so generous with my praise because I spent 8 hrs there yesterday watching india beat new Zealand, surrounded by passionate fans in fantastic weather!

The stadium is smaller but the surrounding is amazing. You can see Himalayan range from gallery. Dharmashala city is also very calm

A fabulous International Cricket Stadium situated in the mountain ranges and provides picturesque view of the mountains. Possibly best setting for playing cricket.
Had to purchase a entry ticket of price around Rs 50.

Ticket price is 30 only...

Toilets are available.... the stadium is one of the most beautiful...a must visit in dharamshala...

When i visited the stadium, there wasn't any match scheduled out there. Some maintenance work was going on but they let us in to at least see how the ground looks. And the moment we entered the stands and had the view of the ground, we were awestruck. The view was so captivating that it's difficult to explain in words.

Well maintained cricket ground with beautiful scenic. Entry fee for adults is INR 30. Opens at 2 pm for public.
