Kashmir's history and mythology
Geologists believe that Kashmir Valley was once in fact a lake. It
is said that the lake seeped through Baramulla. The same account has been
mentioned in the Hindu Mythology. It adds greatly to the tour package of
Kashmir.
Shankaracharya Temple Srinagar
The temple dates back to 200 BCE. A favorite of the Buddhists, the
temple was frequently visited by Adi Shankaracharya. Hence the name, Every
year, the Kashmiri folk celebrate Mahashivratri at the temple with great energy
and zeal. The temple rests on a stone and follows an octagonal structure. The
temple is very popular for the Amarnath Yatra as well.
Shikara Ride in Dal Lake
You’ve probably heard about Dal lake if you haven’t even been to
Kashmir. It is one of the most loved lakes in India for many reasons. The
primary reason is that you get to sit in a Shikara. Try and settle a debate for
us - is the lake prettier or the Shikara? Dal lake is affectionately known as
the lake of flowers. It’s an important source of revenue for the people of
Srinagar. It’s a very important part of the Kashmir Tour package to go for a
shikara ride in dal lake.
Sonmarg
Visit the golden meadow of Kashmir. “Son” means golden and “Marg”
means meadow, hence the name. The journey from Srinagar to Sonamarg is
incredibly scenic, as you will travel through some hamlets and be able to see
crop fields on one side and rivers on the other. It’s a beautiful highlight of
the tour package of Kashmir.
Pahalgam - Valley of Shepherds
You’ve probably seen this location in a movie or three. It’s a
beautiful location where time stops for beauty. The beautiful hill station is
the marking point of the beginning of the Lidder river and the Sheshnag Lake.
Nestled in thick pine forests, the village shows a spectacular scenery of snowy
mountains just standing over it.
Thajwas Glacier
It is one of the most stunning places you will ever see, overlooking
the Thajiwas peak and flanked by grasslands, trees, and frozen lakes. Tourists
come to Thajiwas Glacier to see the spectacular views, create snowmen, and take
a sled trip. One can also go on a short stroll to the Thajiwas Glacier's
adjacent cascades.
Gulmarg “Meadow of Flowers”
It’s not hard to guess that Gulmarg is studded with beautiful
seasonal flowers. It was found in the 1600s by a Kashmiri great author who was
captivated by the green hillsides filled with blossoms. Due to the significant
snowfall, Gulmarg looks that much more magnificent in the wintertime. In the
winter, it transforms into India's leading ski lodge. Gulmarg features one of the
finest ski hills in the globe, as well as the 's tallest 18-hole golf circuit.

Mughal Gardens
The Mughals liked their gardens neat, trimmed, and blossoming with
countless flowers at the same time. Great cemented pathways to talk on,
meticulously maintained gardens, and water fountains here can be found all over
the place. The whole experience will make you feel like royalty. A leisurely
stroll through the gardens will send you back to the time of emperors.
PariMahal & Palace of Fairies
A mystical palace where fairies live, you might think. Well, it’s
the perfect landscape for fairies to roam about. It looks like a scene out of a
fairy tale. The place resembles a cobblestone castle and fantastically dreamy
gardens where fairies live. The backstory might not be a happy as the name. It
is said to be a place where princesses were kidnapped and kept.
Garden of pleasure
The biggest Mughal garden in Srinagar, with seven terraces. It was
conceived and constructed in 1633 by Asif Khan, the elder brother of Nur Jahan
of the Taj Mahal fame, on the eastern bank of the Dal Lake. It's wonderfully
groomed and full of dahlias and other floral plants, just like Shalimar Bagh! A
true natural wonderland to enjoy!
