Welcome to Kashmir ! Wonderland
HOUSEBOAT: The floating palaces
This unique Kashmiri tradition of gracious waterside living originated with the
first British residents of Kashmir. In order to prevent them from assuming power,
the Maharaja of Kashmir forbade the British to own land ; their solution was to
build their residences on water, with the houseboats evolving from modest floating
homes to veritable floating palaces. These hand-built houseboats , boasting all
the amenities of 5-star hotels, are one of Srinagar.s stellar attractions . These
enchanting residences range from 60 to 150 ft. long, are 15 to 20 ft. wide and each
is unique.
There are spacious four-bedroom boats and cozy two-bedrooms; all feature attached
bathrooms, electricity and modern plumbing. The cedar interiors are intricately
carved and display the consummate artistry of Kashmiri craftsmen. The furnishings
include embroidered native rugs and fabrics, local objects dart, and solidly comfortable
Victorian and Edwardian furniture. These luxurious boats also feature rooftop sundecks
from which to take in the Himalayan views and enjoy the brisk fresh air.
