Relax and unwind as you enjoy hot Kahwa (a traditional Kashmiri tea), exchange stories, and savor the magic of a quiet winter evening. Our bonfire gatherings offer a touch of local charm, making for a truly memorable experience in the chilly air.
Scenic Shikara Rides on Dal Lake
Even in winter, the iconic shikara boats glide over the waters of Dal Lake, offering a peaceful way to explore Srinagar. Wrap up warm and enjoy the beauty of the lake with its snowy surroundings. As you drift along, you’ll pass houseboats, floating gardens, and snowy peaks reflected on the water’s surface—a tranquil way to see Kashmir from a new perspective.
