Day one on arrival to srinagar airport taken to hotel after followed by mughal gardens shikhara ride bargain lot for us travel agency alone provided the ride and stay at hotel and 2nd day early in the morning after brkfst to gulmarg on the way shoping at factory outlets is cheap and best and gondala ride stage 1 &2 ts better to book this online day ahead or the ask the travel agency to book that for view standing in the queue will waste ur timeand pony ride the people will demand lot but wil finally u can give arround 350rs and back to hotel signature...3rd day moring to pahalgam enrouting saffron fields and walnuts and other nuts and spices we can buy here on the way ... we can get pure saffron in registered shops and dont forget to taste kashmiri khawa buy 1 bottle;) and we stoped at many places to click photos here on the way but dont do that because there are places like aruvalley beetab valley more scenic amd time wil not be wasted as every min we have to enjoy and on arrival at hotel the view is breath taking at the liddar river bank.and the people who recieved us in hotel iceland are very nice and even i cooked for myself there on the second day as im bored of the food there and wanted to eat our local andhra food;) on 4th day started to sinthantop dnt forget to start as early as possible because road to sinthantop is little dangerous if it rails usually it rains after 2pm so make the trip as early as possible so we can spend some quality time there and dont forget to take some food items and water in hand as we wil find nothing on the top a small shop is there on the top but on the way to top there are no shops available on returnt journey dnt forget to watch kokernag gardens awesome place and back to pahalgam this day very long journey nd we are little tired but aweee worth watching sinthantop awesome experience we avoided sonamarg as i heard too much crowd and people wil lust for the money in sonamarg so til the government fixes some standard price few of my friends told to avoid that place and on 5th day morning visited golf course in pahalgam too and lavender park and some other scenic views and started leisurly in late afternoon and reached srinagar nagin lake as i heard dal lake is more spoiled and we cant do a night stay there boat and interior very good we have to watch once but stay in houseboat is horrible water green in clour and not good its better to avoid night stay in house boat but dnt miss to watch the interiors in houseboat and vegetable market in dal lake and shoping of earrings:) and 6th day morning we went to watch carpet weaving factory and to the airport.book airtickets prior 3months in cleartrip u can find great discounts starting from 2 thousand per person u can book economy class and its better to opt flight to srinagar for 2 main reasons one road is not safe from delhi and jammu even train is boring long and second we can view snowy mountains and breath taking views.tol taxes for total trip cost around 3000 and gondala ride per person 1500rs 2nd stage is must watch... shoping it depends on us;) and its worth watching the paradise on the earth really mesmerizing one will have memories fpr life time
