Harwan Gardens is a beautiful, expansive picnic spot, situated at a distance of about 15 km from Srinagar. A canal, known as Sarband, bordered with chinar trees and attractive flowerbeds, flowing through the middle of the garden, adds to its attraction. It is one of the oldest drinking water reservoirs in the area and receives its water from the Dachigam Nallah.
The Harwan Gardens, however, does not have canal fountains as in the case of other famous gardens of Srinagar. Visitors here like to indulge in nature walks in the large grassy lawns of the garden. Treks to the Mahadev Mountain, located in the vicinity, can be undertaken with the garden as a starting point.
Harwan Gardens is also considered as an ideal entry to the Dachigam Wildlife Sanctuary. Travellers on a trip to Srinagar must visit the Harwan Gardens as it is one of the most popular picnic spots in the city.
