City of Srinagar
Srinagar city is not only the capital of Jammu and Kashmir but it has historical and cultural moorings also. The Government of Jammu and Kashmir is working on many projects to make it a smart city.
In this direction many developmental projects are underway in Srinagar to make it more vibrant and attractive. With tourist season on, Srinagar city is full of life and the way footfall is increasing the city is all set to become more busy and vibrant.
Though Srinagar city has a lot of hotels and houseboats for the stay of tourists, there is a need on the part of private players and government to make new accommodations to high end tourists.
Srinagar city has very less infrastructure for the high end tourists and it is now the need of the hour to make some infrastructure of international standards to get global high end tourists to Srinagar.
Under the smart city project Srinagar is getting more attention for the facelift and when these projects would be completed, Srinagar city would be one of the smart cities to be counted among the tourists.
In the recent past J&K administration has started making the Jhelum river bank of Srinagar city attractive and the project is being implemented from zero bridge to downtown Srinagar.
In the first phase there would be the beautification of the river bank from zero bridge to Amira Kadal and the work is in progress.
