Srinagar is the summer capital of the Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir and is often referred to as the 'Venice of the East.' The city is beautifully situated at an altitude of 1,585 meters in the Kashmir Valley, surrounded by snow-capped Himalayan peaks and interspersed with lakes, canals, and floating gardens.
Dal Lake is the heart of Srinagar: families have lived for generations on intricately carved houseboats (Shikaras), and the floating market — where vendors sell vegetables, flowers, and spices from small boats — is one of the most impressive experiences in India.
The Mughal gardens along Dal Lake — Shalimar Bagh, Nishat Bagh, and Chashme Shahi — are masterpieces of Islamic garden art from the 17th century, featuring terraces, fountains, and flower beds against the backdrop of the Zabarwan mountains.
The Shankaracharya Temple sits atop a hill 1,100 meters high above the city, offering breathtaking panoramic views. The old town, with the 14th-century Jama Masjid and the narrow alleys of the Shahr-i-Khas district, showcases Kashmir's rich architectural heritage. The nearby ski resorts of Gulmarg and Pahalgam can be reached in 2-3 hours.
