How many of you know about this? . The only floating Post office of India? . I have waited for 5 hours to take this picture. . The “Floating Post Office, Dal Lake” – claimed to be the only such in the world – is built on an intricately carved maroon houseboat, now moored on the western edge of the Dal Lake. This post office lets you avail all the regular postal services available in the country while being afloat. The seal used on everything posted from the Floating Post Office is unique – along with the date and address, it bears the design of a boatman rowing a shikara on the Dal Lake. This is actually a heritage post office that has existed since British times. It was called Nehru Park post office before 2011. But that year, the then chief post master John Samuel took an initiative to repurpose it and rename it as ‘Floating Post Office’. . . . #floatingpostoffice #dallake #srinagar #kashmir #india #tourism #kashmirtourism #tourist #travel #travelblogger #travelblog #ghumakkadbilla #travelindia #travelphotography #travelgram #wanderlust #tripadvisor #travelholic #travelguide #travelingram (at Dal Lake, Srinagar) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_0FseIpv0n/?igshid=1sozi2disaxl4
