Botanical Garden Kokernag

#hellohalloween #naturalwonders #familytravel #travel Full of school students and local community who came for picnic. Very few tourists Long queue at the ticket window Entry ticket Rs 24 per person. Zaika restaurant from JKTDC at the entrance suitable for for lunch. Limited choice of food is available: one chicken curry, one vegetable and dal, rice and roti was available. service was quick and food good in taste. Washroom kept locked but clean. Rooms for stay also available from JKTDC Big trees for shade. Most of the tourists going to Kashmir restrict themselves to visiting Pahalgam, Gulmarg and Srinagar. Kokernag gardens is some 50 kms from Pahalgam with a very good highway. I had been to this garden in the summers of 1977 as a young student and was mesmerised by its beauty. The same image took me back to this garden after 45 years with my family and friends. The garden is still beautiful, the majestic Chinar trees still standing tall and leaves turning yellow for incoming autumn. The water stream, the trot fish still there as I had seen 45 years back. The beautiful lawns was full with school students who had come for picnic with their tiffin boxes. The water of the stream is pure with minerals. This is gem of a place and must be promoted by travel agencies and JK tourism department. One has to walk all the way up for the spring. Stroll through the garden Time required is approximately 1-2 hours. Big and nice garden but with lot of crowd
