Srinagar
Kashmir’s lake city and the natural starting point for gardens, old neighbourhoods, houseboats and valley road trips.

About Srinagar
Destination overview
Srinagar works both as a destination and as the practical base for a wider Kashmir journey. Dal Lake, the old city, gardens and food each reveal a different side of the valley.
How long to stay
Two full days give first-time visitors a balanced introduction. Add another night when you want a houseboat stay, slower city time or a buffer around mountain day trips.
