Kashmir's First Chrysanthemum Garden In Full Bloom

A Kashmiri man stands inside the newly opened Chrysanthemum Garden in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on October 29, 2025. Chrysanthemum flowers, locally called Gul-e-Dawood, replicate the success story of Kashmir's famed Tulip Garden this autumn. This year, 3 million blooming chrysanthemums, of more than 50 different varieties, fill the five-hectare garden on the foothills of the Zabarwan forest. The government initiative aims to boost tourism in the Himalayan region, which is badly hit following the deadly Pahalgam attack that kills 26 tourists. The colorful garden adds fresh charm to the city's scenic landscape and highlights ongoing efforts to promote eco-tourism in Jammu and Kashmir. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
