Legend & Literature
Page:  1  |  2
Each spot in Kashmir one is inclined to think the most beautiful of all, perhaps because each in some particular excels the rest Who that has heard of it has not pined to go there? Who that has once visited it has not pined to go there again? Who that has gone there again has not wished to remain there for ever?"
- Sir Francis Younghusband.
 
Kashmir Landscape
“For upward of two thousand years Kashmir has been a home of Sanskrit learning, and from this small valley have issued masterpieces of history, poetry, romance, fable and philosophy. Kashmiris are proud, and justly proud, of the literary glories of their land.”
- George Grierson.
