Number of Visitors
Mr. Farooq Ahmad who holds the position of the Director of Floriculture Kashmir said, “Last year around 3.62 lakh tourists came here. This time it was opened on March 19, and around 3.75 lakh tourists came here. Out of 3.75 lakhs, more than 3 lakh tourists came from outside J-K. This is a big boost for the tourism of the valley.”

year and this is the factor which is being anticipated as the cause for the
massive footfall in the Tulip Gardens of Srinagar. The warm hospitality of the

the Tulip Gardens much richer. Many tourists exclaim that there is absolutely
no competition in the world for the experience at the Tulip Gardens of
