Where have I been?

I went away to Kashmir and Ladakh for a week and a half. My first stop is Srinagar in Kashmir which is famous for its Dal Lake. Stayed in a boat house and visited a number of historical royal garden, Mughal gardens of Nishat (Garden of Pleasure) and Shalimar (Garden of love). I went to Gulmarg to see the glaciers and had a pony ride.
After that I travelled to Sonamarg, famous for its mountain range comparable to the Swiss Alps.
Then we drove through the Himalayan range, cross the Zojila pass, stay overnight at Kargil and finally reached Leh, town of Ladakh. Leh is famous for its many Tibetan Buddhist Monasteries. These are the places I disappeared to.
The map below will show you my route and I've some pictures for your consumption.
