Srinagar is the hottest place of Garhwal as its temperature can reach up to 45 degree in summers while the lowest temperature in winter can drop below 0 degree Celsius. So, its temperature is comparatively extreme.

Srinagar is just 100 kilometer away from Rishikesh,a city important from the point of view of religious flavor. Rishikesh is connected with railway line and also airport is just 20 kilometer away from Rishikesh. So, one can easily reach Srinagar.

All photos have been taken by me with my smartphone.
