Panoramic Kashmir Sightseeing Highlights
The northern-most state of India, Kashmir, is popularly referred to as the “Crown of India”. According to the Nilamata Purana, the Kashmir valley originated from the desiccation of water, a fact corroborated by renowned geologists. In Sanskrit, Ka means “water” and Shimir means “to desiccate”, hence, Kashmir means “a land desiccated from water”.
Rightly named as “Heaven on Earth”, the majestic Himalayan Mountains provide a picture perfect setting to the Kashmir Valley. Its stunning snow-capped mountains, beautiful valleys, pristine lakes, exotic gardens and sparkling glaciers make it a favourite destination for travellers from around the globe. Kashmir first became known worldwide when Cashmere wool was exported to other nations. Their exquisite hand-woven carpets and rugs, globally renowned Pashmina shawls, kurtas, saffron and pottery is a favourite among tourists. Srinagar, the largest city of Kashmir, lies on the banks of the Jhelum River, and is famous for its silver-work, papier mache, wood-carving, and silk weaving.
