Srinagar /ˈsriˌnʌɡʌr/ ( listen ) is the largest city and the summer capital of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. It lies on the banks of the Jhelum River, a tributary of the Indus, and Dal and Anchar lakes. The city is famous for its gardens, waterfronts and houseboats. It is also known for traditional Kashmiri handicrafts and dried fruits.
Folk etymology draws the city name from two Sanskrit words: śrī ("glory, prosperity", a name for the goddess Lakshmi) and nagar("city"), which would make "City of Lakshmi" (or, "City of Prosperity").
However, the earliest records mention the name as siri-nagar which in turn is a local transformation of the original Sanskrit name sūrya-nagar, meaning "City of Sun" (or, of sun god).
The Burzahom archaeological site located 10 km from Srinagar has revealed the presence of neolithic and megalithic cultures.
According to Kalhana's 12th century text Rajatarangini, a king named Pravarasena II established a new capital named Pravarapura (also known as Pravarasena-pura). Based on topographical details, Pravarapura appears to be same as the modern city of Srinagar. Aurel Stein dates the king to sixth century CE.

Clashes Erupt in Downtown Srinagar after Friday Prayers
I met this Italian girl in Delhi when she was about to start her India trip. She spoke of starting from the top ie Kashmir but had been warned by other people not to go because "there are muslims there" and "there is conflict". We ended up becoming good friends and at the end of my trip I invited her to come see Kashmir and stay with my family. This is her journey.

Srinigar's Dal Lake is famous for its 'floating vegetable market', the only one of its kind in India and only the second in the world, the other being the rowing shops along the backwaters of the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. The floating market first attracted international attention in 1960, when a Japanese photographer featured it in a tourist guide that was published out of Japan. Around 10,000 kanals (around 1,250 acres) of land along the Dal Lake is being used for the cultivation of vegetables. There are no permanent shops on the lake. Instead, the local farmers paddle to a central location where the sale and the purchase of vegetables take place between 5 am. and to 7 am. everyday. Most of the vegetables are grown on the lakeside and retrieved from the lake before being sold in just 2...
Mid 2013, three friends took off on an ill-concieved trip to Ladakh. Evading flash floods, landslides and militant attacks in Srinagar, we finally did what we wanted to and returned home; broke, with burnt skin. This is the first part of the bulk of footage that I recorded while half in Diamox induced stupor (Read: Out of focus shots). The main leg of our journey will be up shortly. Dust, winds, faces, roads and a few days of uncertainty all in 2 minutes. Enjoy! Music used: Claire de Lune- Flight Facilities Camera used: Canon T3i/600D Shot and Edited by: Disha Noyonika Rindani.
