Chashme Shahi, or "Royal Spring," is Kashmir's most famous mineral springs, surrounded by landscaped gardens. Located approximately 9 Km from the city center in Srinagar, the springs are noted for their medicinal qualities. The gardens were laid out in 1632 AD by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. An added attraction here is Pari Mahal, founded some years later by Shah Jahan's eldest son, Dara Shikoh, and located 2 Km uphill from Chashme Shahi. There is now also a tourist village in the Chashme Shahi-Pari Mahal area.
