Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu & Kashmir, is built around the shimmering Dal and Nigeen Lakes and is best known for its traditional houseboats and Shikara rides through floating gardens and vegetable markets. The city carries centuries of Mughal influence, seen most clearly in its terraced gardens — Nishat Bagh, Shalimar Bagh, and Chashme Shahi — laid out with fountains, chinar trees, and views over the lake.
Beyond the gardens, Srinagar's old city is home to landmarks like the Hazratbal Shrine, Jama Masjid, and centuries-old wooden mosques, alongside bustling markets selling Kashmiri handicrafts, pashmina shawls, and saffron. As the transit hub for the entire valley, Srinagar is also where most Kashmir itineraries begin and end, making it the natural first stop for any trip.
