Situated in the northern part as the crown of India, the vale of Kashmir is one of the most beautiful regions of India. The state is ancient and has a history of around 4,000 years. The state became the part of India in 1948, but with a special status under article 370 of the Indian constitution. It is bordered by Pakistan, China and Afghanistan from West to East. Called the Switzerland of India, the brilliance of its snow-capped mountains, the tranquility of its silver lakes, a romantic journey on its houseboats and the splendour of its gardens hail the nature lovers from all over the world.
Another amusement of Kashmir is its weather. Though it is a small state, the climate differs from one region to another. The climate of Jammu region is tropical while Ladakh and Srinagar are chilling. The best season to visit Kashmir is April to June for Kashmir Valley and October to March for Jammu. Besides natural splendour, there are many religious sites and other monuments to be seen in and around the valley. Because of infiltration and terrorism, tourism in Kashmir faced a major blow since 1988, but now the condition is improving very fast. Once again Kashmir can be seen bustling with tourists.
Come to be with the exquisite paradise on earth--Kashmir. The marvelous vacation with Indian holiday at the enchanting vale of Kashmir will leave you with unforgettable memories of a rendezvous with eternal beauty.
