When asked of my most memorable moment in my life, it would be my last summer vacation trip to Jammu & Kashmir. This is especially memorable because this is the first J & K trip with my family. We planned the whole trip 2 months in advance, because we were going to
stay only 5 days and we wanted to take the best out of our family
vacation trip, I was impatient to be there with my family. Also two more families of my uncles accompanying us.
So after more than 24 hours of railway journey we reached Katra station of Jammu. We had hired a car & the best person was the car driver to guide us. As soon as we reached at our hotel , the decided plan was to visit Vaishno Devi Temple of Jammu at midnight. As decided we started at midnight & believe me there were more than thousands of peoples who started to visit temple at midnight. The streets were full of colorful lights & there were horses also to take you to the temple. On the next day at 9.30 am we reached at the temple & took blessing of the Goddess. After visiting temple we came back to our hotel & decide to plan for the next 4 days.
On next day the driver took us to Srinagar which is very close to Kashmir. It took 8-9 hours from Jammu to Kashmir. Now it was the time to plan for the next 3 days & according to the plan, on the next morning we first visited to 2 famous garden of Srinagar called Shalimar garden & Nishat garden. After that we visit to Dal lake for boating where we had saw boat houses & floating garden in Dal lake. So it was the beautiful end of the day 1 in Srinagar.
The next day we visited to Pahalgam which is also known as Small Switzerland due to its beautiful scenery & on the last day we gone to Gulmarg the beautiful place of Srinagar where you can think that its a heaven on earth. The whole region is covered with snow where we can play lots of snow games. I also did ice-skiing on that snow. It was the awesome moments to spend such a beautiful time on such a heaven place. At the time of coming back to hotel we also did river rafting in Jhelum river.
It was really a memorable trips which I cannot forget. What else you want in your life if you are spending such a memorable time with your families. Really J & K is a Paradise on earth where everyone should visit at least once. I am thankful to my parent who took me in such a wonderful place. I am also thankful to God we could traveled everywhere we planned with my whole family together and as I said before it was one of those memorable trips if not the most memorable in my life.
