Daily Life In Kashmir

Houseboats along Dal Lake in Srinagar, Kashmir, India. The houseboats lining Kashmir's famous Dal Lake are in fact luxurious floating hotels. Houseboats were first built in the 19th century to circumvent a law against non-Kashmiris owning land. They have become a fixture in Srinagar and are popular with tourists.
