Kashmir
Houseboats on Dal Lake, meadows under snow peaks
Kashmir is the quiet kind of luxury: a shikara at dawn on Dal Lake, a Mughal garden in bloom, a gondola ride above Gulmarg's white slopes and an evening of wazwan in a heritage houseboat. We pair the valley's best properties with private chauffeurs and local hosts who know the lanes the tour buses miss. Spring brings tulips, summer the meadows of Pahalgam and Sonamarg, autumn the chinar gold, and winter some of the finest snow in Asia.
Best timeApril to October for gardens and meadows; December to February for snow
