Pari Mahal is a beautiful historical monument located in the city of Srinagar, in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. It is a seven-terraced garden built on the top of a hill, overlooking the city and the famous Dal Lake. The name Pari Mahal translates to "Fairy Palace" in English, and it is believed that the garden was built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in the 17th century.
The garden is a perfect blend of Mughal and Persian architectural styles, with intricate carvings and beautiful fountains. The terraces are connected by a series of staircases, and each terrace has its own unique feature. The first terrace has a beautiful fountain, while the second terrace has a small pond. The third terrace has a series of arches and the fourth terrace has a beautiful pavilion.
The garden is surrounded by lush greenery and offers a breathtaking view of the city and the surrounding mountains. It is a popular spot for tourists and locals alike, who come here to relax and enjoy the serene surroundings. The garden is also a popular spot for picnics and family outings.
Apart from its natural beauty, Pari Mahal also has a rich history. It is believed that the garden was once used as an observatory by the Mughal astronomers, who studied the stars and planets from here. Later, it was used as a residence by the Sufi saint Dara Shikoh, who was the eldest son of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan.
Today, Pari Mahal is a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India, and it is maintained by the Jammu and Kashmir Tourism Department. It is open to visitors throughout the year, and entry is free. A visit to Pari Mahal is a must for anyone visiting Srinagar, as it offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty.
