Step into the cultural legacy of Kashmir with the iconic Shikara boat! 🛶🏞️ Often synonymous with "Paradise on Earth," the Shikara traces its origins back to 16th-century Kashmir under Emperor Akbar's reign. Initially simple dug-out canoes, these boats evolved into the beautifully carved wooden Shikaras we know today. Traditionally used for fishing and transport across Dal, Wular, and Nigeen lakes, they are now a symbol of beauty and tranquility, crafted from water-resistant Deodar wood.
