Shalimar Garden is beautiful picnic spot for people in the valley of Kashmir. This is a wonderful creation of Mughal Emperor Jehangir. This is one of the attractions in Kashmir.

The Shalimar were built by Emperor Jehangir for his wife Nur Jahan. The garden is built in four terraces with traditional water channel running down the middle. Shalimar Bagh has an air of seclusion and repose, and its rows of fountains and shaded trees seem to recede towards the snowcapped mountains. A Son Et Lumeiere or sound and light show is put on here every evening during the May to October tourist season.
