According to Mathura Masoom, Director of Floriculture Kashmir, the department has decided to open the garden after the tulips started blossoming.
“The department has decided to open the garden for visitors from Monday after the tulip flowers began blooming,” Masoom said.
The tulip garden, located at the foothills of the Zabarwan mountain range and overlooking the scenic Dal Lake, is considered one of the most picturesque destinations in Srinagar during the spring season.
Officials said that nearly 1.8 million tulip flowers will be on display in the garden this year.
The flowers include around 70 to 75 different varieties, creating a vibrant landscape of colors that attracts photographers, nature lovers, and tourists.
Authorities have also made improvements to the layout and arrangement of flower beds to further enhance the visual appeal of the garden.
Major Spring Attraction in Kashmir
Every spring, the tulip garden becomes a major highlight of tourism in India-administered Kashmir, as visitors flock to witness the blooming fields of colorful flowers set against the backdrop of the Zabarwan hills.
The garden, spread across multiple terraces, offers panoramic views of Dal Lake and the surrounding mountains, making it one of the most photographed locations in the region during the blooming season.
Tourism officials expect a significant number of domestic and international visitors once the garden opens later this week.
