India's OLDEST Town 2000-Year-OLD DOWNTOWN | Masala LAVASA at Jamia Masjid Srinagar, Kashmir!!

Post the Lavish Kashmiri Wedding on the 5th day I headed to explore Old Srinagar! Downtown is a treasure of Kashmir, dating back to almost 2000 years, it is India's oldest colony and in the vicinity of Downtown is Jama Masjid also called the Jamia Masjid is one of the largest and oldest mosques of India, way bigger than Old Delhi's Jama Masjid. I visited the Jama Masjid first and then explored the vintage neighborhood of Downtown, Nowhatta. Also tasted the most popular street food of Srinagar called the Masal lavas or Masal Tsot. Explored a 250-Year-old house in Downtown, met really friendly local Kashmiris. Then we headed to a popular hangout spot called the Downtown Cafe and relaxed with a cup of Zafrani Kahwa and Coffee!
