Kashmir is Safe for Tourists in 2026? Ground Reality Explained | My Honest Travel Experience

Описание: Today I visited beautiful Sonamarg in Kashmir, also known as the “Meadow of Gold.” Sonamarg is located around 80 km from Srinagar and it usually takes about 2.5 to 3.5 hours to reach by road, depending on traffic and weather conditions.
