After numerous plans to visit Kashmir that all went in vain, I finally landed up at the airport of my dreams, yes, Srinagar it is! My eyes were wondering here and there because I really couldn’t believe myself that I was standing in Kashmir. I buckled up in the taxi as I embarked the beautiful and mesmerizing journey I have been waiting all my life for. This dream took almost 20 years to get fulfilled.

The landscape changed as we started moving and even the temperature started dipping although slowly. The winding road was gaining its height as I was approaching the luxury boutique hotel in Srinagar that I had booked for the stay. The snow kissed forests, white high snow clad mountains on both sides of the road, the chill present in the air and the beautiful fragrance of the environment made me even more excited to be in Srinagar, the beauty of India. Before I could take more dreams, my taxi stopped and I was welcomed at the best Luxury resort in Srinagar, Rah Bagh- By the Orchard.

Rah Bagh is definitely one of the most stunning boutique hotel near Dal Lake. The hotel is known for its stunning location and warm hospitality. This hotel is not simply a hotel, it is an experience in itself which one should definitely indulge in at least once in a lifetime.

According to me the best thing about this resort is its awe-inspiring location. It is enveloped by Zabarwan mountains and is overlooking the Nageen and Dal lake. The entire property is set amidst the apple orchard. Being located in the outskirts of Srinagar, the vicinity around the hotel is also quite peaceful, relaxing and soothing. There is very little to no hustle bustle in and around the property. The hotel also offers an uninterrupted views of the jaw-dropping snow clad mountains which look magical during winters.

  • Rooms with a view

Only a handful of the hotels actually live up to their expectation and Rah Bagh is surely one of them. The room was so beautiful that even when I was exploring Srinagar, I always felt like coming back to my room and spend a considerable time in its balcony. The view of the room was what caught most of my attention. The view was so stunning that I ended up spending hours standing in the balcony and staring,

If you are planning a winter getaway in Srinagar, you now know where to put up. Happy travel!
