Moving to Srinagar

Moving to Srinagar may hold many challenges to an expatriate, but InterNations has the know-how to support your relocation. More than anything it is a place to exchange and receive trustworthy information and insider tips via expat forums and dedicated guides. From visas to import regulations we’ve got it covered. Whether communicating with other expats in the area, across the country, or even across the world with other ‘global minds’, you will probably find someone who can give you advice. With such an international global community literally at your fingertips, InterNations can help if you're moving to Srinagar. Once you’re there you can relax and enjoy some of the special things Srinagar has on offer. Why not visit the Mughal Gardens: one of the must-see places in India? These gardens, named after the Mughal emperors who once ruled over India and who developed Srinagar as their summer resort, were intricately designed to give a sense of ‘paradise on Earth’. However, it is the lake in the middle of the gardens which many describe as the ‘Jewel in the crown of Kashmir’. Seen from the Nishat Bagh garden with its wonderful fountains, lawns and flowerbeds, Dal Lake is certainly a wondrous sight, especially with the snow-capped Zabarwan mountains as a backdrop.
