Itinéraire
You will be picked up from your central city hotel in the morning with your guide. Starting along the banks of the city's Jhelum River you'll proceed to your first stop at Khanqah of Shah-I-Hamadan, a fourteenth century mosque. Continue to Pathar Masjid, another mosque built in 1623 by Noor Jahan known for its nine horizontally-oriented arches. Then continue to the Maharaj Gunj Spice Bazaar. This market offers wood carvings, carpets, pashmina shawls, engraved metal items, and more.
Proceed from the bazaar to the octagonal dome of the tomb of Zain-ul-Abidin's mother and on to the mosque of Jamia Masjid. The Indo-Saracenic engineering here is well known for its striking courtyard and 370 wooden pillars cut from the trunk of a single tree. Take a break for lunch at local restaurant (Under Own Expense). After lunch continue to the seventeenth century Naqshband Sahab shrine built from layers of brick and wood, and then look at the Madin Sahab shrine, a religious site composed in the Kashmiri style of the fifteenth century.

About Srinagar
Srinagar is the main city of the Kashmir Valley, set around Dal Lake with wooden houseboats, Mughal gardens and the Himalayas on the horizon.
Srinagar spreads along the Jhelum river and around Dal Lake, a broad mountain lake where wooden houseboats lie moored in rows and shikaras, small boats with canopies, carry passengers between floating gardens and markets. The old city is a tangle of wooden mosques and shrines, among them the Jama Masjid, with its timber pillars, and the shrine of Hazratbal beside the lake. Hari Parbat, a hill fort above the city, and the Shankaracharya Temple, on a hill overlooking the lake, give wide views.
Top-ranked sights in Srinagar: Dal Lake, Sonamarg, Shankaracharya Temple.
