SRINAGAR’s new hangout zone is Polo Market where locals and tourists congregate to shop, pass time at a café or just relax on a bench and watch the world go by. The market is now a pedestrian zone with a smart bicycle station. It looks spiffy and cool.
The other hangout joint is a two and a half-km stretch along the Jhelum river on the Rajbagh side which too has got a facelift. It’s been prettied up with luminous lights, plants and paving. There are also walkways being built between Lal Mandi and Rajbagh. . .
