About Mughal Gardens in Srinagar
Srinagar is home to some of the most beautiful Mughal Gardens in India. Besides being perfect representations of Persian influenced Mughal architecture in its prime, Mughal Garden Srinagar are known for their exceptional beauty owing to their spectacular mountainous natural settings which remain unparalleled in all of India. Shalimar Bagh Srinagar in the foothills of Pir Panjal Range is a popular tourist destination in the Kashmir Valley.
Traditional Mughal Gardens
One of the main elements of these gardens is running water and a pool that would reflect the magnificence of the sky and the garden. Different varieties of trees providing shade, fruit and flowers, a plethora of colorful wild grass, a mild zephyr and birds chirping all around made the gardens a very relaxing spot. Running water in the canals and a reflecting pool to show the beauty of the sky and garden itself are the key features of Mughal gardens. The numbers eight and nine, considered sacred by the Mughals, can be found in the octagonal pools of garden architecture.
The Mughal Gardens in Srinagar owe their magnificence and unparalleled heights of perfection to the Mughal Emperors Jahangir and Shah Jahan, both of whom had an unwavering affection for the region. Srinagar houses several picturesque Mughal Gardens that not only demonstrate the excellent engineering skills of the Mughals but also provide splendid views of the Dal Lake and other key landmarks.
This is the largest Mughal Garden in India, located on the banks of the Dal Lake in Srinagar. It is best visited during the autumn and spring seasons. Covering an area of 31 acres, this public garden was built by the Mughal Emperor Jahangir in 1619 for his wife Nur Jahan. It is connected with Dal Lake via a 1.6-km-long canal lined by a walkway.
Nishat Bagh
Also on the banks of the Dal Lake, Nishat Garden Srinagar is one of the most beautiful terraced Mughal Gardens in Srinagar. It is often fondly referred to as The Garden of Gladness and offers magnificent views of the Zabarwan and Pir Panjal mountain ranges.
Pari Mahal Srinagar
Overlooking the Srinagar city from the top of the Zabarwan mountain range, this is a beautiful seven terraced garden that does not contain any water channels and cascades like the other gardens. Instead, a system of underground pipes feeds the water tanks.
Chashme Shahi Garden Srinagar
Built in 1632 by a governor of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, it is 108 meters long and 38 meters wide and is spread over an area of one acre. This beautiful garden is built around a freshwater spring in the Zabarwan mountain range. Located along the banks of the Dal Lake, this charming garden also boasts of terraces, a water pool and a large fountain.
Verinag Srinagar

Achabal Srinagar
Located in a small town of Anantnag District in the southeastern Kashmir Valley, this garden was also built by Jahangir for his begum Nur Jahan. A waterfall or a fresh spring in the garden is one of the main attractions here. It is about 142 meters long and 14 meters wide.

Mohd's 6 days trip to Srinagar
Me and my wife had the most memorable holiday to kashmir. And it wouldn’t have been possible without the help of Ms. Rabiya who planned and executed our trip so well. She guided us with all the activities and selected the best hotels for us in our budget. She managed our trip well. Polite and always just a call away. And ofcourse Mr. Adil who took care of our transportation so well. We forgot few of our things in gulmarg, but Mr. Adil made sure that somehow we get our things back and he took all the pain in getting it back. We will always remember such a warm hospitality. Humble and polite and always ready to help. Thankyou so muchAbdul Rahuman

N's 4 days trip to Srinagar
I planned a week's family trip in Dec 2020 with the assistance of Travel designers. We all were pleased with Mr. Aabid Hassan's personalised service and planning. He was very kind, helpful and friendly. Our driver was the nicest, hotels were very good. The hotel staff were helpful and friendly and stay was all great. Boathouse was sooo beautiful, felt like a small palace in itself..but was damn cold even with heaters and a strick care taker who kept a tab on our eating even on the small meals as part of package. My only feedback not for Travel designers team, but for the hotels/Boathouse would be for better variety of food. Even if you charge us more, customers will be okay to spend to try and get to taste some Kashmiri dishes or more non-vegetarian options including mutton or fish which sadly we couldn't try. But Mr. Hassan still helped us with a special dish delivered to our room when feedback was given, which was very kind of him. I've never had any travel agency do that for us to show customer centricity. My whole family had a great memorable trip and I was glad that I finally had a good trip planned through Travel triangles, although I had tried for other trips in the past. I have already shared and recommended Travel designers to some of my known people. Inshallah if we go to Kashmir in future, we'll definitely go through Mr. Hassan at Travel designers. He made our trip a memorable and smooth one. Kudos to him and his team. NoorShreyamkumar

I am writing this mail with lots of happiness and joy. We don't have words to explain our time spent in kashmir. It is a JANNAT on earth,a beautiful place that I can refer to every friend of mine to visit once in a lifetime. And all credit goes to you AALIYA, you are so professional and a true asset for any organization. Because of you I never felt any issue in my entire trip. You were always available over the phone anytime which gave me confidence to travel freely. At last I would like to say to people who are planning a trip to KASHMIR, please don't think twice and visit once, you will never forget this in your lifetime. Kudos to Zippgo,Travel Triangle,Mr. Mir and Special Thanks to my Driver. Last but not least Aaliya you are true ROCKSTAR. Keep it up.Sunny Talreja

I was always in a dilemma whether a travel agency would provide me a good service because a lot of my friends and family faced false commitments and misleading claims. Despite of that I chose going on a trip with travel triangle and to my surprise they provided me exemplary service and everything was well planned and executed.
