Jammu and Kashmir is the northernmost state of India. Jammu is famous for its natural landscape, ancient temples, Hindu shrines, palaces, gardens and forts. Every year thousands of Hindu devotees are attracted to holy Hindu religious places of Amarnath and Vaishno Devi. The natural scene of Jammu has made it one of the popular places for adventure tourism in South Asia. The historic monuments of Jammu are unique blend of Islamic and Hindu architectural styles.

Tourism is an integral part of the Kashmiri economy. Guided by the name "Paradise on Earth", Kashmir's mountainous landscape has been attracting tourists for centuries. Notable places are Dal Lake, Srinagar Pahalgam, Gulmarg, Yusargarg and Mughal Gardens etc. However, due to insurgency the tourism industry is badly affected.

In recent years, Ladakh has emerged as a major center for adventure tourism. This part of the Greater Himalayas, with nude peaks and deep valleys, is called "Moon of the Earth", which was once known for the Silk Route of Upper Asia from the subcontinent. Leh is also emerging as a tourist destination.
