Nishat Bagh, the "Garden of Joy," is a testament to Kashmir’s royal Mughal heritage. Nestled on the eastern banks of Dal Lake with the Zabarwan Mountains as its backdrop, this 17th-century terraced garden was built by Asif Khan, brother of Empress Nur Jahan. Its symmetrical layout, inspired by Persian garden designs, features cascading terraces, vibrant flowerbeds, and ancient chinar trees. A central water channel, fed by natural springs, flows gracefully, enhancing its tranquil charm. Once a royal retreat, Nishat Bagh offers visitors a glimpse into the grandeur of Mughal architecture, making it an unmissable destination for history and nature enthusiasts.
