Hazratbal shrine is at distance of about 9 kms from Srinagar. It is located on the western shore of the Dal lake opposite Nishat Bagh and commands a grand view of the lake and mountain beyond. It has a special sanctity because a sacred hair of prophet Mohammad is preserved here. This is displayed to the public on special occasions.
Just beyond is the Nazim Bagh (garden of morning breeze), one of the earliest Mughal gardens and is attributed to Akbar.
