Places to Visit Srinagar
Let the experts guide you to the best of this mesmerizing destination.
Srinagar literally means, “Beautiful City.” Its title could not be apter. Srinagar is the largest city and the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir. A beautiful mixture of cultures in food, music, art, and architecture, there are many beautiful places to visit in Srinagar.
Taking conventional guide for tourist attractions in Srinagar leads travelers to mesmerizing sights such as Shalimar Bagh. This sprawling Mughal garden is an absolute beauty and it is linked through a channel to Dal Lake. Urban lakes have their own charm and Dal Lake is no different. Second largest in Jammu and Kashmir, this lake is one of the top places to visit in Srinagar. Both these locations, one man made and the other natural, are two of the greatest examples of Srinagar tourist attractions.
Srinagar is a great travel destination in terms of religious significance and spiritual journeys. Looking up places to visit in and around Srinagar eventually leads to Shankaracharya Temple. This 371 B.C. architecture is also known as Jyesteshwara temple or Pas-Pahar by Buddhists, later renamed as Takht-e-Suleiman, and is considered holy by all religions. No less impressive is Old Srinagar’s Jamia Masjid with its capacity of over thirty thousand at a time.
Sightseeing in Srinagar is incomplete without a trip to Sonamarg. With snow-capped mountains, Thajiwas Glacier, and open meadows, Sonamarg is truly one of the finest places to visit in Srinagar. Beauty at its very best, Sonamarg is even more pleasant during the summer. Another similar point of interest is Shankaracharya Hill on which the Shankaracharya temple is located. With panoramic views of Srinagar in its entirety, this place is a wonderland.

Our family four members and one child visited Srinagar, Pahalgaam, Gulmarg and Sonmarg between 10 to 14-June-2018. We booked the package with Classic Kashmir and had a pleasant visit. Hotel Royal Comfort Classic is at its best location in front of Dal Lake, but the food quality is disaster for vegetarians. Rooms and service of the hotel is satisfactory. Classic Holiday Kashmir has planned our trip nicely and takes feedback on day to day basis by Miss. Rabiya. She is a lovely lady, who nicely arranged everything. The driver Mr. Bilal was a nice person....
