Another destination covered by the Enchanting Kashmir package is Pahalgam, which is a tourist spot in the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir. Pahalgam is also a famous shooting spot for Bollywood movies and also is the starting point of the Amarnath Yatra, which is a 16 km long journey from Pahalgam.

A traveler also gets to experience Punjab in this package. Amritsar is the last destination in the Enchanting Kashmir package.
