Paradise on Earth

Mughal emperors called it heaven, and one glance at Dal Lake's mirror-still waters reflecting snow-capped peaks explains why. Kashmir is where nature painted its masterpiece - valleys carpeted in saffron flowers, houseboats floating through lotus gardens, and apple orchards stretching to the horizon.
