Kashmir is a destination like no other. No questions, no debates, it is a fact! Don't think, just plan and go!
Shikara ride to Char Chinar
Dive straight into the Kashmir wali feeling by taking a languid shikara ride on Dal Lake.
The trip to Char Chinar is the longest route -- about 2 hours.
Have A Meal at The Lalit's Open Air Restaurant
Dine under majestic Chinar trees, overlooking green gardens, rose bushes and hills.
The Kashmiri Haaq Saag, Trout and Phirni are wow!
Walk Around The Dal Promenade
Stroll around Dal Lake, the heart and soul of Srinagar.
Enjoy the looong walk with a view of shikaras bobbing elegantly on the water.
Shop At The J&K State Emporium
Set inside a heritage two-storied cottage, find authentic, genuine Kashmiri embroidered beauties here -- shawls, carpets, papier mache items, bags, etc.
Stop By At The Indus
On the drive to beauteous Sonmarg, stop at the banks of the gurgling Indus.
It is just gorgeous! Pick a pebble please!
And The Jhelum
Stand on the wooden bridge in the old city and get a view of the old-style homes on either side of the river.
Visit Downtown's Bazaars
It's a treat to go past shops selling copper, wedding items and almost everything.
Buy your dry fruits here! They are much cheaper than what's available online.
Mughal Gardens And A Pic In Kashmiri Dress
All the Mughal Gardens have photographers displaying costumes, jewellery you can choose from.
For Rs 200 you can have a pic for the ages!
