Kashmir is known for its beautiful lakes, and there are many lakes in the region. However, the exact number of lakes in Kashmir is not known, as different sources report different figures.
According to the Jammu and Kashmir Tourism department, there are more than 80 lakes in the Kashmir Valley alone. However, some sources estimate that there are over 2,000 lakes in the entire region of Jammu and Kashmir, which includes not only the Kashmir Valley but also the regions of Jammu and Ladakh.
It's important to note that many of these lakes are small and remote, and not all of them are easily accessible or well-known. Some of the most famous lakes in Kashmir include Dal Lake, Wular Lake, Nigeen Lake, Manasbal Lake, Gangbal Lake, Tarsar Lake, and Sheeshnag Lake, among others.
