Arif Rashid Srinagar, 19 May : Tourists visiting the Kashmir Valley from different parts of India have praised the regions natural beauty, hospitality, and safety, while encouraging others to explore the Valley at least once in their lifetime. Ahmad, a tourist from Kerala, said his first visit to Kashmir had been a memorable experience. During his stay, he visited popular destinations including Sonamarg, Pahalgam, and Dal Lake. This is my first trip to Kashmir and it has been wonderful. The Valley is among the most beautiful places in the world. The people here are polite, honest, and welcoming, he told Rising Kashmir . He said that throughout their five-day stay, they felt safe and secure in every part of the Valley. We never felt insecure during our visit. The people of Kashmir treated tourists with great respect and warmth, he said. Ahmad further said that after returning home, he would recommend Kashmir to his friends and relatives. He suggested that tourists should plan at least a week-long trip to fully explore the Valleys scenic destinations. Kashmir is even more beautiful than Switzerland. Tourists should visit the Valley in every season, as each season offers a different charm, he said, adding that he witnessed a huge rush of tourists in Pahalgam. He also appreciated the cleanliness and natural beauty of tourist spots across Kashmir, saying the Valley offers visitors a chance to truly enjoy nature. Another tourist, Mohammad Anwar, described Kashmir as one of the most beautiful places in the world and said everyone should visit it once in their lifetime. People planning trips to European countries should first explore Kashmir. The Valley is more beautiful and offers an unforgettable experience, he said. Anwar advised tourists to conduct proper research before planning their trip so they could manage their stay according to their budget. He also urged the government to regulate hotel tariffs and cab fares to make Kashmir more affordable for tourists from across the country. If accommodation and transport costs are reduced, more tourists from different states will be able to visit Kashmir and explore its destinations comfortably, he said. Chief Executive Officer of the Doodhpathri Development Authority, Riyaz Ahmad Beigh, said tourist footfall at Doodhpathri has increased significantly after the destination was opened for tourism activities. Nearly 2,500 tourists visit Doodhpathri every day, while the number rises further during weekends, he said. He added that the increasing tourist influx has created livelihood opportunities for local residents engaged in various tourism-related services, including tea stalls, ATV rides, and pony services.
