One of the most unique travel experiences can be found in India’s Dal Lake, where the world’s only floating post office operates. Located on a houseboat, this post office not only serves as a functional hub for sending and receiving mail but also offers visitors a chance to learn about the region's rich culture and traditions. Established in 2011, the floating post office is housed in a beautifully decorated houseboat, which reflects the vibrant Kashmiri art and architecture. Travelers can send postcards from this extraordinary location, making their correspondence a memorable part of their journey. In addition to its postal services, the floating post office features a small museum that showcases the history of the postal system in Jammu and Kashmir, highlighting the innovation of a postal service adapted to the region's unique geography.
