KASHMIR: Paradise on Earth

Kashmir is the northwestern region of the Indian subcontinent. Historically the term Kashmir was used to refer to the valley lying between the Great Himalayas and the Pir Panjal range. India's northernmost state and crown of India, Kashmir is a Paradise regained. Kashmir is so precious, no outsider is allowed to own land here.

Kashmir throughout the ages has remained another name for Paradise. Cradled in the lap of majestic mountains of the Himalayas, Kashmir is the most beautiful place on earth. On visiting the Valley of Kashmir, Jehangir, one of the Mughal emperors, is said to have exclaimed:
                     "If there is paradise anywhere on earth, it is here, it is here, it is here."   

1. Srinagar: Nature at its Best!

Srinagar is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places to visit in Kashmir as well as in India. From boating to trekking, bird watching to water skiing, Srinagar place has it all.


Best time to visit Srinagar is June to October as at that time the city is full of green beauty, and for snow December & January would be the best. I suggest you to try boat houses whenever you go to Srinagar.







2. Gulmarg: For An Adventurous Journey, Adventure Enthusiasts Haven, Skier’s paradise
Famously known as the ‘Meadow of Flowers’, Gulmarg is a treat to the eyes with its spread of vibrant flowers against snow capped mountains as backgrounds.
You can visit Gulmarg at same time as Srinagar. You must try  Mountain Biking, trekking, Skiing if you visit in winters and Gondola rides for a panoramic view of the valley.

Leh is one of the best places to visit in Kashmir in summers. The lofty mountains, the alpine lakes, and the quaint settings enable Leh one of the best places to visit. This place is every biker’s dreamland. Clad in the beauty and love of nature, Leh offers breathtaking views, leaving no visitor disappointed. Most of the tracks are closed after November due to heavy snowfalls So please avoid in that season, otherwise its a full year welcoming venue.












4. Kargil: The unforgettable City
The city whose name brings shivers to Indian Citizens is a definite visit to everyone. Not only does this city bring heart-touching memories but also provides scintillating views. The atmosphere in this city oozes with emotions. Best for Mountaineering in the Nun Mountains, trekking to Suru Valley. Also visit to Mulbek Gompa, Shergol, Urgyan Dzong and Wakha Rgyal














5. Pulwama: The city of color burst
