Yes this is not safe to visit beyond Benihal tunnel. Patnitop is the last place where you can go comparatively safe. After that this is valley and you never know, even security people stay at alert all the time.


but recently i did not hear anything like terrorist attacks there may be now there is peace. My younger brother is going to Amarnath this month and have planned to go Srinagar let him come and see what he says. :)
As kashmir is a border of the country India, so it is not much safer place to visit

And what about the frequent terrorist attacks there. :blink:

May be the places which are near the border are the unsafe ones. :blink:

Because no outsider are going, They have driven out even workforce from other parts of the country. Now this is in between Security forces and terrorist groups, not published much. I had been there for years.

So the actual picture will be cleared when my brother comes back home from there. :blink:
You see people go there to have fun but while they see no tourists but security people all around or not so well kept tourist places with no tourists but families of army people they feel frustrated.

I went last in 2008, but not to Shrinagar. I was in Rajouri and things were worst there.

Are you talking about house boats? Once there was a time those were not available, now there is time tourists are not available to stay in them. I have stayed in there for many times for short and longer duration.
Still some part of Srinagar has this kinds of House boats.Last month i visit there............
where did you stay there? I have full idea of the place, please share with me the scenario now. Did you stay in a hotel or houseboat?
I reside In Hotel but for two hour in evening time i go for that water Boat.That was full of Flower...............
You mean Shikara during evenings last month. That was great as dull is totally dull now days. But you are lucky to have done so much boating there.
