Kokernaag is a sub district town in Breng Valley ( The golden crown of kashmir).kokernaag is at the ht of 2000 mts approx the sea level..It is famous for its Botanical garden and largest fresh water spring in kashmir valley. If one takes his drive across Sinthan pass, kokernaag is only 40kms drive.
As such it's quite isolated and off the route on NH1B, but after visiting the place by the end of fall season , I can simply say, it's beauty is similar to Europe in Autumn. The kokernaag spring gushes out of the base of a thickly wooded hill from where it divides into channels, which resembles to the claw foot of hen.Hence , it's name koker means "fowl " and naag means "serpent". ....
The botanical garden is home to innumerable species of trees and bushes , which in autumn gets varied colours to the whole landscape..... I was just mesmerised by the beauty of the place. ....jktdc has hotel to stay inside the botanical garden complex but truely freezing place to stay a night , so anyone planning a night halt here should come prepared.... The Sinthan pass only opens for 2/3 months every year...so if one wants to enjoy the autumn colours , u cannot plan via the sinthan pass .
I tried to canvas the beauty on my lens ....
