Dal lake is perhaps one of the most famous and scenic lakes in Asia. Situated in Srinagar in Kashmir, Dal Lake stretches to a length of around 7 kms with a width of 3.5 kms. Since Moghul times Dal Lake has been an attraction because of its beauty and aptly named ‘Jewel in the crown of Kashmir’.

Tourism is of course the biggest commercial activity. The lake is surrounded by picturesque boulevards. The other attractions at the lake include the island with four Chinar
, named Char Chinar.

The island located on the Dal (small Dal) is marked with the presence of majestic Chinar trees at the four corners, thus known as Char-Chinari (Four Chinars).
