History:
Srinagar is the largest city and the summer capital of the Indian state of Jammu
and Kashmir. It lies on the banks of the Jhelum River, a tributary of the Indus, and
Dal and Anchar lakes. The city is famous for its gardens, waterfronts and
houseboats. It is also known for traditional Kashmiri handicrafts and dried fruits.
Matheran is a hill station and a municipal council in the Raigad district in the
Indian state of Maharashtra. It is a hill station in Karjat Tahsil and is also the
smallest hill station in India. It is located on the Western Ghats range at an
elevation of around 800 m (2,625 feet) above sea level. It is located around 90 km
from Mumbai, and 120 km from Pune. Matheran's proximity to many metropolitan
cities makes it a popular weekend getaway for urban residents. Matheran, which
means "forest on the forehead" (of the mountains) is an eco-sensitive region,
declared by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government
of India. It is Asia's only automobile-free hill station.(wikipedia)
