India is one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, thanks to its rich history and tradition, as well as its many natural features. The country is noted for its diverse landscape, which includes hills, mountains, deserts, and beaches.
An X user,Sandipan, recently complimented the beauty of Kashmir, frequently nicknamed ''heaven on Earth,'' and uploaded jaw-dropping photographs of prominent tourist destinations such as Srinagar, Sonmarg, Gulmarg, and Pahalgam.
The user, an IIM Ahmedabad and IIT Bombay alumnus, also compared the region to Switzerland, saying that ''Kashmir has so much more natural beauty to offer.''? ? ?
Sandipan wrote in his post while sharing breathtaking images, ''I've been to Switzerland, and I can say that Kashmir has so much more natural beauty to offer - the last week of travel has just made me feel so much more at peace,''?
In a later post, he explained his travel plan and provided advice for where to go and what to see. ''We traveled as a family, and while you can choose the destinations separately, it is recommended that you go through a local agent, who will book your accommodations and provide you with a car to tour the area at your leisure. The total cost for a family of four for 6 days was approximately 1.3L (excluding flights)," he shared.
"All in all, would love to do this again - truly a heaven on Earth this place," he added in his final post.?
While some agreed with him, others said that it was an unfair comparison, emphasizing the need for infrastructure improvements in Kashmir. One user responded to his post by saying, ''Can agree with this. Last year, I traveled to Kashmir, and the entire experience was remarkable."
Another said, ''Kashmir is wonderful. However, it lacks infrastructure, which can only be provided through increased government spending and the privatization of the tourism business."
A third answered, ''I agree with this. Last year, I traveled to Kashmir, and the entire experience was remarkable. A fourth commented, ''Kashmir and Himachal are much far more gorgeous than Switzerland." Check the viral post here.
