The grassy pastures of Yusmarg in Budgam district Kashmir

The grassy pastures of Yusmarg lie in the lap of mountains with splendid snow capped peaks and dense pine forests swept by fragrant wild breezes . It is just 47 kms from Srinagar City . Falling in Budgam district , this area is just 13 Kms from the pious town of CHRARE -SHARIEF wherein the shrine of tallest saints of kashmir Sheikh Noor Ud din or Nund reshi is located .The flower strewn meadows with DUDH GANGA stream crashing on its way over the rocks and frothing to make white foam form a captivating backdrop leaving you simply speechless. NilNaag lake also falls in this picturesque area .

Abaad Hai Khwabon ki Tarah Vaadiye Kashmir ,
Fanoos Hai Taron ke to Phoolon ke Chiraagaan ,
Daaman me Pahaadon ke Latakti Hai Baharein ,
Pather ki Hatheli pe Mahakta Hai Gulistaan,
Shaali ke ye Khait ki Sabze ke Samandar,
Saaye Hain Chinaaron ke Jannat ke Shabistaan,
Jo Chheen Le dil voh hunare Daste Hunarmand,
Anmol Magar Jins ke Bazaar me Arzaa.
( Ali Sardar Jafri )

This beautiful vale of Kashmir is like a settled dream in my mind
Like the Chandelier of stars or fragrance of flowers all over ,
The springs dances in its foothills Presenting freshness of its Flower filled gardens
Paddy fields look like green sea over here
The shade of a CHINAR is like the bed room in Heaven
The artists of this land tempt every one with their skill
Their handicrafts , unmatched but cheap in the present commodity market
