The hotel we stayed in

We set out around 11:30 AM, planning to have lunch at the fine-dine restaurant Sifar on the way near Pahalgam.
Pahalgam, in Anantnag district, offers a beautiful journey from Srinagar. The path cuts through the karewas of Pampore, providing a scenic backdrop of snow-laden mountains. Our journey, including lunch at a famous restaurant, continued along the banks of the Lidder River.

The picturesque journey continued, and we stopped near Pahalgam to capture moments over massive rocks within the river boundaries.
