India - Srinagar

Srinagar is a very exotic place to visit. It's located on the Indian side of Himalayas next to the Pakistan border. Srinagar is known for its lakes and houseboats on the Dal Lake. There you can stay in a houseboat and enjoy the spectacular view of the Himalayan mountains. Just sit on the pier of your houseboat in the morning and see the fog on the lake and the boat taxis starting their day.. The whole place has a very mystic feel to it! You move from place to place with canoes, see lots of local people selling groceries from their canoes etc. You can also take trip to the mountains and visit the Srinagar city. Srinagar is also known for its Islamic style Mughal Gardens.
