Srinagar (sh)




City (pop., 2001 prelim.: 894,940), summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir state, northwestern India.

It lies on the banks of the Jhelum River in the Vale of Kashmir. Situated amid clear lakes and lofty mountains, it has long had a considerable tourist economy. Seven wooden bridges span the river, and the gondolas of Kashmir ply the adjacent canals and waterways. The floating gardens of Dal Lake are a famous attraction.
