Why to visit Srinagar
A great place for honeymoons and family vacations, with its calm Dal Lake and Nigeen Lake.
Shikaras are used by tourists to visit sights such as the Floating Vegetable Market and the Mir Bahris, a vibrant community of people who live on the lake. In addition, there are a lot of houseboats that provide a beautiful and unique stay experience on the lake. Srinagar is home to some of India's most exquisite Mughal-age gardens, with the top attractions being Nishat Bagh, Shalimar Bagh and Chashm-E-Shahi Garden. It is also home to Asia's largest tulip garden.
Kashmiri cuisine or Wazwan is famous all over the globe. Trying out the traditional delicacies, which are rich in unusual fragrant spices, is a must when visiting Srinagar. Kashmiri shawls, Kashmiri apples, and dried fruits (almonds and walnuts) from the Lal Chowk Market are also popular in Srinagar.
