SEASON BASED TOURISM
SPRING. Which extends roughly from March to early May, is when a million blossoms
carpet the ground. The weather during this time can be gloriously pleasant at 23 deg. C or chilly and windy at 6 deg. C. The Tulip Garden add the beauty to the spring season.
SUMMER. Which extends from May until the end of August. , the whole valley is a
mosaic of varying shades of green - rice fields, meadows, trees, etc. and Srinagar with its
lakes and waterways is a heaven after the scorching heat of the Indian plains. Temperatures ranges from between 25deg.C and 35 deg. C.
AUTUMN. The onset of autumn, perhaps Kashmir's loveliest season, is towards September,
when green turns to gold and then to russet and red. The highest day temperatures in September are around 23 deg. C and night temperatures dip to 10 deg. C by October, and further drop by November. The golden Chinar leaves not only beauty to heaven
DECEMBER. Through December, to the beginning of March is winter time, which
presents Srinagar in yet another mood. Bare, snow-covered landscapes being watched from beside the warmth of a fire is a joy that cannot be described to anyone who has not experienced it.
