Kashmir

Nicknamed the “heaven on the Earth”, Kashmir is known for breathtaking alpine sceneries, romantic houseboats, and soaring snow-capped peaks. There are reasons that despite being politically volatile, this charming Indian State hasn’t dropped out from the lists of nomads. It is the land of abundance of natural beauty, immaculate gardens, sparkling rivers, backdrop of snow-capped mountains, rich history, noteworthy art, and inspiring culture. The glorious piece of heaven on Earth, Kashmir has something for tourists of all ages. You can take a shikara boat ride, enjoy skiing and snowboarding at Gulmarg or unwind at the picture-perfect town of Pahalgam; all the while you will be creating memories that you will relish the rest of your life. It is sometimes called the Switzerland of India for its enchanting allure.
