Anantnag, located just after the Jawahar Tunnel on NH 1A, is a mesmerizing destination in the beautiful Kashmir Valley. As you travel from the state capital, Srinagar, which is 53 km away, you'll be captivated by the scenic journey. Many visitors choose to take the train to Jammu and then continue their adventure by taxi or bus to reach this enchanting place. In the summers, when the capital shifts from Jammu to Srinagar, the journey from Jammu to Anantnag becomes more expensive but equally thrilling. While state buses offer a safer option, they take longer and may be slightly uncomfortable. So, brace yourself for an unforgettable experience as you embark on this incredible journey to Anantnag!
