Since Srinagar is a small city its possible to cover many different places in one day. After Chashma Shaahi, we drove to Pari Mahal. Both are within a few hundred meters of each other.
Pari Mahal is a sort of terraced structure. There are 7 levels or so in all. In each level, there is a garden, Stone buildings and a stairway on each of the two ends to reach the upper level. The whole thing built on a hill top, commands a view of the Dal lake and the Shankaracharya hill.
The season makes a world of difference. Without the beautiful, colourful flowers, these gardens are nothing. I can say this because I have visited them in April when there were no flowers at all.
