November 13, 2009 | Tourists flock to Gulmarg in large numbers to see season's first snowfall | Srinagar: A large number of tourists are flocking to Kashmir valley following the season's first snowfall at the world famous Gulmarg and Sonamarg. "Kashmir is beautiful. It is very cold here and we can't leave our hotel rooms without warm clothes," said
Seema Devi, a tourist from Uttar Pradesh. On Friday, cold wave continued to grip
Srinagar as the temperature dipped to nine degrees Celsius. Even though the cold
wave kept the locals indoors, tourists were seen enjoying the weather immensely.
Locals could be seen huddled together around fire on roads warming up themselves.
"It is a lot of fun in Kashmir during winters. A lot of tourists coming from different
parts of the country and residents are enjoying the weather," said Ghulam Hassan
Noon, a local resident. |
