Introduction

This is my first post for you all and i dont know why have i created the blog. For the time being, maybe you can assume me as a genius paranoid who thinks that people are not appreciating him for his knowledge which he wants to show off.

The above paragraph must have given you a mocking hint that suggests that I must be some self proudy kind of person, well, maybe I have become one. Recently when I completed my Kashmir trip, I went back to college and I dont remember the exact conversation but a friend of mine commented on me "you have  started acting as if you have really come from The Paradise", to which I replied "what do you exactly want to say, that Kashmir is not a paradise?". She was again going to say something but I immediately took out the chikara (house boat) keychain that I had brought for her from there, she became happy and i could switch on to the next conversation (conversation about houseboats lined up on Dal Lake, see the picture down).




About the Kashmir trip, let me tell you it was a real fun. Though first I prefer telling you about the Delhi trip first, A day in Delhi was a brief one, I saw the following locations there-








Lotus Temple


India gate


Birla Temple


The Iron Pillar


Laal Kila (Red Fort)





Qutb Minar


Katyani Temple


The next day saw us flying to Srinagar, the same day we had to climb 200 stairs to reach the ancient Shankaracharya Temple. Here are some snaps stating my site seeing experience there
















 The next spot was the Mughal Garden, I am short of words to describe the sensational experience but I do have pictures to describe it 






























The same day we visited Dargah Hazratbal, here's a snap i took from the outside



Then we checked out the marketplaces for the famous kashmiri shawls and dry fruits. It was the next day that gave me the answer to why Safron (Kesar) is so expensive, more on that later, I'll be back with the continuation of the trip soon, till then Good bye, and do comment. Tata
