Kashmir Welcomes Spring Tourists A Year After Attacks
Visitors walk through blooming tulips at the Indira Gandhi Memorial Tulip Garden in Srinagar, Indian-administered Kashmir, on April 6, 2026. The garden is set against the Zabarwan range and overlooks Dal Lake. Each spring, millions of flowers attract visitors from across India and abroad. Tourism, a key pillar of the local economy, was affected by reported incidents involving visitors in April last year, leading to increased security measures. While visitor numbers have since recovered, the region continues to balance its natural beauty with a history of instability. (Photo by Kabli Yawar/NurPhoto)
