Gulmarg
 

Gulmarg or "the Meadow of Flowers," is a charming hill station at 2,653 m, situated at a distance of 51 km from Srinagar, amidst tall pines, gigantic firs and the snow-moulded mountains. As the month of spring arrives, the slopes get a carpet of daisies, buttercups, blue bells and other blooms, making the surroundings appealing. The Mughal Emperor is said to have once collected as many as 21 different varieties of flowers at Gulmarg.
