Nigeen Lake is extension of Dal Lake, Srinagar.
This is the area where the House Boats are few in numbers and the boat people (villagers) live.
There are floating villages/gardens/fields on water on this part of the lake.
This picture was clicked when the sun was going down against the Mogul Fort (built by Akbar now called Hari PArbat) on top of the mountain in background.
This is the time when the villagers head back home on small canoes after finishing their work on land.
Its amazing to see people commuting on boats to reach the land and take buses to reach their respective workplace.
