Most house boats on the Srinagar's Dal Lake are situated in long straggling rows on the bank of the lake and can be accessed directly from the land without the help of shikaras. The houseboat and Shikara communities have lived for centuries on the Dal, and every possible thing is found nearby the houseboats itself including Doctors, tailors, and bakers in tiny wooden shops on the lake. The picturesque lotuses and gardens add to their mystic elegance.
