Which lake is especially famous for shikaras and houseboats in Srinagar?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Dal Lake

Dal Lake is the well-known lake of Srinagar in the Kashmir Valley and is strongly associated with shikaras and houseboats. Shikaras are traditional, narrow wooden boats used for sightseeing, transport, fishing, and carrying goods across the lake. Houseboats provide distinctive floating accommodation and have become an important part of Srinagar’s tourism and cultural identity. The lake is also known for floating gardens, markets, and scenic mountain surroundings. Therefore option A is correct. Chilika is a large brackish-water lagoon on the coast of Odisha, Sambhar is a saline inland lake in Rajasthan, and Kolleru is a freshwater lake in Andhra Pradesh. Although all three are important Indian water bodies, none is specifically identified with Srinagar’s shikara and houseboat culture.
