About Dal Lake

Dal Lake is the sparkling jewel of Srinagar 🌊. Known for floating gardens, wooden houseboats, and lively shikara rides, it reflects the everyday life of Kashmir. Early mornings bring misty calm, while evenings glow with golden reflections πŸŒ…. Floating markets sell flowers, fruits, and handicrafts, creating a unique water-based culture. Staying overnight on a houseboat is a magical experience filled with warmth and hospitality. Dal Lake is not just scenicβ€”it is living heritage, peaceful yet vibrant, and the most iconic symbol of Kashmir tourism πŸ’™.
