Shikara (boat) parked on the dock of the floating market on Dal Lake, Srinagar.
The lake is home to local vendors selling their fresh produce and handicrafts to locals as well as tourists on their Shikara. It's a way of life and quite an astounding one.
There is also a physical market on the lake, where you can walk from shop to shop, bargaining for the best price and quality.
In the evenings, this market transforms into a glittering lane with lights dancing across the dark lake water, casting reflections and dancing shadows.
It's an experience like no other.
