So after lunch, we went on a tour of Lake Dal.
There are so many houseboats! We went in winter, so we almost had the lake to ourselves. In spring, they will be filled with even more tourists.
It was an experience cruising Dal Lake. We visited the floating lotus and vegetable gardens, back waters of the lake.

Capturing a postcard moment. :)
A boat full of lotus plant.... we had lotus every dinner on the house boat.
Our guide showing us the secret of how the locals keep themselves warm outdoors. This is a charcoal holder known as a 'Winter wife / husband'.
The local stores on the lake.
It's actually a small but vibrant community....
