ii. For the best use of the day’s destinations, get up on time. The city’s alleys, side streets, and suburbs are delightful in every way.
iii. Do your research. Even if you can find practically all of Srinagar’s information online, you still need a lot of information from people who have actually visited the city. This is because Kashmir is one area where the topography and landscape change with the seasons. Also for a week, nowhere is the same.

v. Avoid trying to cover everything at once. You can never get enough of Kashmir’s unending beauty. Just choose a few of places, and then have fun!
vi. Strong winds, rain, snow, or intense sunlight could all occur in one day in Kashmir due to the weather, which will frequently play tricks with travelers.
