Shikara Ride

Shikara Ride: Floating Poetry on Dal Lake

Embark on a journey of elegance and tranquility with a Shikara ride on Dal Lake. These ornate wooden boats, adorned with vibrant colors and intricate carvings, gracefully glide on the mirrored surface of the lake, offering a timeless experience.

As you drift along the water, the panorama unfolds—the majestic Himalayas in the background, charming houseboats lining the shores, and the reflection of centuries-old Mughal gardens creating a visual symphony. The gentle lapping of water against the Shikara becomes a soothing melody, inviting you to immerse in the serenity.

Dal Lake, nestled in the heart of Srinagar, transforms into a floating world of wonder during a Shikara ride. Engage with local vendors in their floating markets, where vibrant flowers, spices, and handicrafts create a kaleidoscope of colors. It’s not just a ride; it’s a cultural immersion.

A Shikara ride is an ode to the poetic beauty of Kashmir, an experience that transcends time. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet sunset or embracing the lively atmosphere of the Floating Gardens, each moment on a Shikara is a verse in the enchanting poem of Dal Lake.
