Kashmir is witnessing a rise in tourism this summer with mercury rising to severe levels in several parts of the country.

According to reports, the houseboats in the region are already jam-packed with tourists.

Manzoor Ahmad Pakhtoon, President of Kashmir Houseboat Owners Association, stated that it is the peak season for tourism as there are vacations in outside states and people use to visit Kashmir during this period especially, which starts in May.
