DAL LAKE

The Dal Lake which has the length of 8 Km long and a width of 4 Km, spreads over
a total of 26 Sq. Km. The fascinating Dal Lake is divided into two smaller ones
the Lokut (small) and Bod (big) Dal. The south western part of the lake has a
maximum depth of approximately 12 M. the Dal Lake gets some of its water from
spring but is also supplemented by water from the mountain lake, Mar Sar.

In the western part of the Lake one can glimpse a few islands, some bigger, some
smaller. Its shores are very fertile and surrounded by willows. Potato, tomato,
pumpkin, cucumber, radish and lots of other vegetables are grown here
cultivation of the floating gardens which also lie in this part of the lake is
another interesting feature. These gardens consist of reed rafts of different
lengths and a width of approximately one and a half by three meters and are
covered by 1020 CM thick layer of earth and mud. Vegetables and melons are grown
on these artificial floating islands.

Dal Lake is, initially, one of the most confusing parts of Srinagar for it's not
really one lake at all, but three. Further more much of it is hardly what one
would expect a lake to be like - it's a maze of intricate waterways and
channels, floating islands of vegetation, houseboats that look so firmly moored
they could almost be islands and hotels on islands which look like they could
simply float away.

VERINAG

Verinag is named after Nila Nag, the son of the wise saint, Kashyap Rishi, who
reclaimed the Kashmir valley, the original shape of this spring was in the
circular form of a kund. In 1620, the Emperor Jahangir had the shape changed
into the traditional Mughal octagonal. The spring, which has a circumference of
80m in enclosed today by a brick wall under which are vaults.

spring in Verinag in Kashmir is considered as the chief source of the river
Jhelum.

These lake - like waters have a limpid clarity in which the verdant surroundings
of pine trees are mirrored. Fish swim in the cool depths and this picturesque
setting that so captivated the Mughal emperors has lost none of its pastoral
charm over the centuries. The lawns around the spring are a beautifully
manicured green, and banks of massed flowers add splashes of colour to this
symphony of greens and browns.

A Shaivite shrine just outside the complex draws pilgrims every year, who come
for a ritual dip in the spring of the first day of the year according to the
lunar Hindu calendar.

Some 2 km away is Veravurthur, supposed to be the source of the Jhelum. The
waters of the many nearby springs, called collectively, Sapta Rishi, have their
confluence at Sangam, where people bathe on festival days. The birth of the
river is celebrated annually with a fair.

Verinag is made even more special by the sight of several varieties of colorful
flowers and mountain air.We offer kashmir budget tours and kashmir tour packages
to visit kashmir paradise.

MANASBAL LAKE

Manasbal Lake is located about 30 km north of Srinagar, the summer capital of
Jammu and Kashmir State. It has predominantly rural surroundings with three
villages, Kondabal, Jarokbal and Gratbal overlooking the lake.Manasbal in
Kashmir is the deepest lake of the valley with beautiful lotuses in it. Manasbal
Lake is considered as the 'supreme gem of all Kashmir lakes' with lotus (Nelumbo
nucifera) nowhere more abundant or beautiful than on the margins of this lake
during July and August. It is the deepest lake of Kashmir valley and perhaps the
only one that develops stable summer stratification. Manasbal lake is classified
as warm monomictic lake and circulates once in a year for a short time. The
other lakes in the region either have weak stratification or are polymictic.
Close to the northern shore are the ruins of a fort which was built in 17th
century by a Moghul king to cater the needs of caravans that used to travel from
Panjab to Srinagar. On the south, overlooking the lake is a hillock-Ahtung which
is used for limestone extraction. The eastern part is mainly mountainous and
towards the north is an elevated plateau known as 'Karewa' consisting of
lacustrine, fluviatile and loessic deposits.

The lake has no major inflow channels and the water supply is maintained through
spring water inflow and precipitation. An outlet channel connects the lake with
the Jhelum River. The outflow of water is regulated artificially.

The local population uses the lake as a source of water, for fishing and for
obtaining food and fodder plants. Many people are involved in harvesting and
marketing of lotus rootstocks which are extensively eaten in the State. In
recent years, tourism has caught up with the Manasbal Lake in a big way and as a
consequence there are lots of pressure on the terrestrial ecosystem which is
being exploited at many places.

The origin of the lake is still unresolved but there is no denying the fact that
Manasbal Lake is very ancient. The local people believe in the legend that the
lake is bottomless. Over the years as a result of human pressure the lake has
become eutrophic. The water body is virtually choked with submerged weeds
particularly during summer which is the high tourist season. The deep water
layers become anoxic with considerable accumulation of hydrogen sulphide .

Manasbal in Kashmir It is one of the largest natural haunts of aquatic birds In
Kashmir.We offer various kashmir tour packages and kashmir tour packages to
visit kashmir paradise.

AHARBAL

Aharbal is the famous,highest and gigantic waterfall of the Kashmir Valley.
Aharbal is located some 75 kms Aharbal, kashmir from Srinagar and towards the
south. By its dimensions the fall is not what can be called a gigantic one, just
some 20 metres or so. However, the volume of water that comes crashing down on
the rocks below does amuse one. Topography resembles to other tranquil villages
of kashmir. While visiting Aharbal, what is more entertaining is the trip
itself. While reaching the place, the apple orchards of Shopian look quite
pleasing. The road curves in loops just before the fall and descends sharply.
The roaring water at the fall is quite fascinating and one can directly make it
up to the edge of the fall which is formed by hard granite boulders. The stream
that flow just 50 m from the fall is known for yet other amusement, the trout
fishing. The water isn’t too deep and trout fishes breed in small rock crevices.
There is an office of the fisheries department that offers permits. The stretch
extends for several kilometers. Aharbal is also famous for trekking as the treks
leading to the beautiful lake called Kounsernag. Treks alongside the lake in the
Pir Panjal range are quite popular among the trekkers. The most pleasing

meadows at Aharbal and one among them called Kungawatan is very popular. Aharbal
