Dal Lake

Dal Lake, often known as "The Jewel of Srinagar," is a 26-square-kilometer body of water. This hillside lake boasts colourful Shikaras, traditional wooden houseboats, and floating marketplaces, making it one of Srinagar's most captivating sights. Tourists go to Dal Lake to ride in the gorgeous Shikaras, which are essentially wooden boats with gorgeous canopies over them.

They also like shopping at the floating market or lake market for real Kashmiri products. These marketplaces are set in the middle of the lake and sell a variety of goods, including saffron and handicrafts. The houseboats on Dal Lake are decorated with floral themes and elaborate carvings and give spectacular views of the lake. These boats are outfitted with single cabins and luxury suites, providing tourists with excellent accommodations. Visitors may also enjoy ice skating on the frozen lake during the winter season.
