Cradle of horticulture right on the lap of mother nature and it's rich Himalayan mountains. This building is the auditorium, a massive structure, beautifully crafted like an opera house that could easily house more than 700 persons. It is equipped with air-conditioning, lights fans, spot lights, focus lights, modern stage lightings, reclining seats, surround sound system and adequate fire and safety systems This is where almost all the programs of YSP are held and it will surely leave an impression on the guests who attend them.
