Pari Mahal, a historic monument in Srinagar, Shehr-e-Kashmir, stands out with elevated terraces offering panoramic views of Srinagar and Dal Lake. Integrating Mughal and Islamic styles, it features arched doorways, terraced gardens, and intricate water channels. The palace, constructed in the mid-seventeenth century by Dara Shikoh, served as an observatory for astrology and Sufism. Mythology adds allure, with tales of captive princesses and mythical beings. Despite disrepair, Pari Mahal's original features endure, showcasing historical significance. Its six terraces, with a central domed chamber and hammam, exhibit unique architecture. Lacking cascades, the garden impresses with its integration of architectural elements and natural surroundings. A symbol of cultural heritage, Pari Mahal attracts visitors appreciating its beauty and tranquillity, while remaining a popular location for filmmakers.
