Kashmir, Jammu, Ladakh

House Boats on the Dal Lake.
Set like a
jewelled crown on the map of India, Kashmir is a
multi-faceted diamond, changing its hues with the
seasons - always extravagantly beautiful. Two
major Himalayan ranges, the Great Himalayan Range
and the Pir Panjal, dominate the landscape. They
are the source of great rivers,
which flow down into the valleys, ending in
exquisite lakes.
