Mughals then called it "Paradise on Earth', Europeans now call it
'Switzerland of Asia' and the world calls it Kashmir. Sitting pretty on
the foothill of Himalayas,Kashmir is one of the most picturesque states
in Noth India often referred to as 'Crown of India'. Every corner of
this state is worth your time but few attractions like the Dal Lake and
the Mughal gardens stand out. The deep running valleys , high mountains
of Kashmir are all scintillatingly charming that adorn different hues in
every season.
With such variety of landscapes, the state offers opportunities for
scores of activities. Kashmir is most famous for its serene lakes
sprinkled throughout the province. An evening on the shores of these
lakes or a calm ride on the Shikaras, for most people turns out to be
the best moments of their trip in the laps of nature. Spending few days
in a houseboat are more enthralling than spending a week in the most
luxurious hotel. But nothing compares to the adventure activities that
you can indulge in . With snow capped mountains, fast flowing rivers,
this is a world beyond imagination. Here, apart from taking the toughest
treks, you can also indulge in river rafting which is really a
mind-blowing experience.
