enjoy the beauty of dal lake in srinagar
Hi all indeed the trip is a very fun and exciting story is not it?
One of them visited the dal lake tour in srinagar.
Srinagar is a city located in Jammu and Kashmir, India. This region is the second largest region in the integral state of tourism and recreation in Kashmir which has the nickname "Heaven on Earth".
Sightseeing in this city one of them is Dal Lake. Dal Lake is a lake located in the city of Srinagar. In the lake we can go around enjoying the natural beauty by using a rowing boat with a cloth, and a cushioned bench or called Shikara.
Along the shore of Dal Lake there is Ghate which is where Shikara rests. There a number of Shikara owner residents will offer tourists to board the boat. Usually the hourly rate to be requested is 200 Rs per person, but the price is still negotiable to the boat owner. When the price is agreed, then the tourists will be invited boat owners around the beautiful Lake Dal.
In the middle of the lake, we are invited to enjoy the green leaves that flood the lake and large wooden ships that complement the beauty of this Dal Lake. The large wooden ship is a House Boat, a lodging place provided for the tourists who want to spend the night. To be able to spend the night at the House Boat is quite expensive, we must spend at least 3,000 Rs per night.
But for travelers with a mediocre budget, there are also cheap lodgings located in the residential area just behind the lake at a price of about 750 Rs - 1,500 Rs per night.
The inn is not facing directly with Dal Lake, but the hospitality of the innkeeper makes the tourists will feel homey while spending the night there that is not less nyamanya with House Boat.
In the morning, at around 05:00 local time, we can visit the floating market located in Dal Lake. To reach the place we can use Shikara. We recommend that before traveling to the Floating Market, first make an appointment to the owner Shikara because many boats that have not been operating in the morning.
The journey to the Floating Market which takes half an hour, we will pass the ranks of house boats, settlements and plants that live in the lake. In the floating market there are dozens of farmers who sell their crops on boats and not infrequently, they also barter the harvest. There tourists can buy food or souvenirs sold by traders.
Entering at 07.00 conditions in this buoyant market began to quiet. The farmers rowed their ships and left this place. Go home, Shikara owners will invite to comb the Dal Lake enjoying the scenery in the cool morning.
In addition to Dal Lake and the Floating Market, Srinagar also presents several other sights such as the holy mosque Hazrat Bal and Mughal Garden which is one of the relics in Srinagar where tourists can enjoy views of Dal Lake from the hill.
