Introduction Of Gulmarg :

At an altitude of 2,730 mts. above sea level, 56 km from Srinagar. A huge cup-shaped meadow, lush and green, with slopes where the silence is broken only by the tinkle of cowbells, Gulmarg looks like a fantasy set in a film, has been the venue of several films. All around the snow-caped mountains, and on a clear day you can see all the way to Nanga Parvat is one direction and Srinagar in another. Slightly lower then Gulmarg is the shrine of Baba Reshi, a Muslim mystic saint, whose shrine is visited by people of all faiths. Gulmarg also has one of the world’s highest green Golf Courses, as well as a clubhouse, which is a historical building in its own right. For a fun-filled ride of a most unusual kind, Gulmarg’s newly constructed gondola lift from high above Gulmarg through pine-clad slopes is exhilarating. In winter, Gulmarg acquires a new persona – that of the country’s premier king resort.
