Beautiful Kashmir : Sonmarg

Kashmir is no doubt the heaven on earth. We repeat this mantra many many times, knowing too well that we run risk of sounding monotonous.... but well... only the one who has actually been there can understand it, why this has to be repeated repeated & repeated. Just because the kind of scenic beauty you'll see in Kashmir is unmatched, unmatched, unmatched. !!! Srinagar, Sonmarg, Gulmarg, Khillanmarg, Dras, Kargil, Pahalgam... you name the place & the images of pure beauty start floating in the mind.  And unforgettable .. indeed unforgettable is the aerial view when flying from Jammu towards Srinagar, you cross the snow filled Himalayas.... We can only be thankful to God we got to see such scenic beauty. We can only be thankful to be alive & to feel such beauty.  Oh India... Incredibly beautiful India...
