Ever wondered how a house-boat on a lake in Srinagar looks like from inside?

On my recent Ladakh trip, I crossed Srinagar, where I stayed at a houseboat on Nagin lake for a night. I had heard of the romantic beauty of staying on a houseboat, overlooking the calm surface of the lake dotted with numerous 'shikaras'.

However, I'd never have imagined how beautiful a house-boat looks from the inside:


The carving is absolutely exquisite and precise:


Oh yeah, the outside view, early in the morning didn't disappoint either!
