Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir, is famous for its breathtaking lakes, gardens, and picturesque location in the Kashmir Valley, surrounded by snow-capped mountains. The city has stunning scenery, pleasant weather, and cultural heritage.
Srinagar International Airport (SXR) connects to major Indian cities and international destinations. Transportation options such as taxis, buses, and auto-rickshaws are available to reach the city center from the airport.
The best time to visit Srinagar is during the summer (April to September) for warm and sunny weather. However, the city is also popular in the winter (October to March) when it is covered with snow.
Key attractions in Srinagar include Dal Lake, a famous lake surrounded by mountains, where visitors can try activities like boating, fishing, and shikara rides. Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Bagh, Mughal gardens on the banks of Dal Lake, are known for their fountains, flower beds, and terraced lawns. Pari Mahal, another Mughal garden on a hilltop, offers panoramic views of the city and the surrounding mountains. Hazratbal Shrine, located on the banks of Dal Lake, is a significant Muslim shrine believed to house a relic from the Prophet Muhammad.
Srinagar also features lakes like Wular Lake, Manasbal Lake, and Anchar Lake for boating, fishing, and birdwatching. It is surrounded by snow-capped mountains like the Pir Panjal Range and Zanskar Range, making it an ideal destination for hiking, trekking, and camping. The city's rich culture, influenced by Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh heritage, is evident in its temples, mosques, gurdwaras, and diverse Kashmiri cuisine.
