The summer in mountains can get more than romantic especially when it comes to the heaven on Earth. It's not Switzerland but a small town, in the heart of a serene region in Kashmir. The greenery is prevalent with the waters of rivers following with every turn you take to visit any tourist spot in Pahalgam. Lush green bed of grasses, tall Chinar and Pine trees tilting their heads and welcoming the seasons like the way the place does for every single guests across the globe. Dry fruit farming and apple trees are the center of attraction for everyone while traveling by road. For the foodies, Kahwa would be the first welcome drink they would have from the locals or hotels or even in the stores if you drop in for shopping. The epic adventure one can enjoy would be the river rafting with a scenic beauty of blue mountains and carpet of greeneries along with a wide range of blossoms peeping their heads amongst shrubs. Besides all the fairy tale world of snow capped mountains and rivers and hills, a famous shooting location is all-time favourite for tourists at Betab Valley. Drenching or playing with the cold stream water at Betab or enjoying Sunday brunch with family and friends underneath the giant trees are the best ways to capture the beauty of Pahalgam in the soul. How can one miss the paragliding in Pahalgam, qmd for the royal feel, a visit to the Lidder Valley Golf Course is a must. The cool breeze and the special mouth watering soul-food available in varieties would make the trip to Pahalgam a memorable one. Non-vegetarian platters like Chicken Yakhni, Roganjosh mutton or chicken, Tabakmaz, etc. Apart from these vegetarians can enjoy Kashmiri Pulav, Kashmiri Dum Aloo, Kadam Saag, Tamatar Chaman, and last but not the least the desserts are finger-licking good which includes Shufta and Firni. The mountainous region is kept on 24x7 guard by the Indian Army for the safety and security of every individual be it locals or tourists with a daily patrol in the early morning or late evening. The best part about Pahalgam is traveling to Aaru Valley would take a couple of hour. The original visuals one can ever see love would be the luckiest ones. The valley stretches with charming scenaries of flowers, shrubs and trees. Chandanwari is another attraction for the tourists which takes an hour to travel from Pahalgam. The whole town is guared by Indian Army personnels. Woollens and shawls are the one of the most in-demand in Aaru Valley at a less than reasonable price. Pahalgam market does sell the special food items and woollens at a lower price compared to Srinagar. If heaven is to be seen on Earth it would be Pahalgam in India.
