Embark on a private guided tour that unveils the soul of Srinagar, blending the vibrant heritage of its Old City with the serene elegance of its Mughal Gardens. Wander through the labyrinthine lanes of downtown Srinagar, where ancient mosques, shrines, and bustling markets tell tales of Kashmir’s rich past. Then, step into the paradise-like Mughal Gardens, architectural marvels built by emperors, featuring terraced lawns, cascading fountains, and panoramic views of Dal Lake. This full-day tour, led by an expert local guide, offers a perfect mix of history, culture, and nature, tailored to your pace and interests.


Jama Masjid, Srinagar

Nestled in the heart of Srinagar’s old city, Jama Masjid is an architectural marvel built in the 14th century by Sultan Sikandar. Featuring Indo-Saracenic design with 378 wooden pillars carved from deodar trees, the mosque is not just a place of worship but also a symbol of Kashmir’s spiritual heritage. Its tranquil courtyard and traditional charm make it a serene retreat amidst the bustle of Nowhatta.

Khanqah-e-Moula

Also known as Shah-e-Hamadan Masjid, this spiritual sanctuary on the banks of River Jhelum is one of the oldest Muslim shrines in Kashmir. Built in honor of Mir Syed Ali Hamdani, the mosque is a stunning example of Kashmiri wooden architecture, adorned with intricate carvings and vibrant papier-mâché interiors. It is revered for its spiritual significance and historical grandeur.

Hari Parbat Fort

Overlooking the city from a hillock, Hari Parbat Fort is a historic fortress that blends Mughal and Durrani legacies. Initially developed under Emperor Akbar and later fortified by the Afghan governor Atta Muhammad Khan, the fort offers panoramic views of Srinagar, Dal Lake, and the surrounding mountains. The hill also houses sacred shrines of Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs, symbolizing Kashmir’s diverse cultural tapestry.

Shalimar Bagh Garden, Srinagar

Commissioned by Emperor Jahangir for his beloved queen Nur Jahan, Shalimar Bagh is the epitome of Mughal garden design. With cascading terraces, flowing fountains, and blooming flower beds, the garden is a poetic expression of paradise on Earth. Located by the shimmering Dal Lake, it’s a perfect spot for leisurely walks and royal nostalgia.

Nishat Bagh

Often referred to as the "Garden of Bliss," Nishat Bagh is the second-largest Mughal garden in Kashmir. It stretches across 12 terraced levels, each offering mesmerizing views of Dal Lake and the Zabarwan Mountains. Built by Asif Khan, the brother of Nur Jahan, this garden charms visitors with its flowing water channels, majestic chinar trees, and Persian-style landscaping.

Chashme Shahi Garden

Chashme Shahi, or the Royal Spring, is a charming Mughal garden famous for its natural spring believed to have medicinal properties. Built in 1632 by Ali Mardan Khan for Emperor Shah Jahan’s son, Dara Shikoh, the garden is a quiet escape with terraced lawns, a central water channel, and a panoramic view of Dal Lake. It's a compact yet elegant spot steeped in history and tranquility.
