Kashmir is a destination that will surely touch your heart

One of the very few places on earth that will not fail to impress you ever in which ever form and whatever season is Kashmir, the most expensive jewel on India’s crown. The best thing is the changing hues of this esteem crown every season shouting different images to showcase, be it the bed of flowers in the summers to fruit laden trees in autumn or sacred snowfall in the winter months. The Himalayan range up the north and the Pir Panjal in the south with lakes, orchards, rivers and dense forest, the valley echoes nature at its most beautiful form.

To realise your holiday ideas, visit Kashmir in the winter when snow carpets the entire mountain range and you let loose in the innumerable snow sports like snow sledging, skiing and tobogganing. The orchards flourishing and the flowers blooming in spring and summer can only be seen to believe. You get the royal opportunity to play golf 2,700 metres above sea level, water ski in the frozen lakes and sit idly to capture the prized rainbow trout. A long trail along the long winding roads with pine trees on either sides or a ride in the shikaara on the Dal Lake of Srinagar or simply relinquishing the gorgeousness of the houseboats, the options are boundless and awesome to select from.         

With various activities for children, a family holiday is highly recommended. The dream destination can be reached by air or rail. There are direct flights from all the major Indian cities which are in turn connected well with the rest of the world.
