About
Kashmir Tucked away in the foothills of the
Himalayas, with the picturesque river Tawi flowing alongside, stands the
land that Raja Jambu Lochan discovered one day while he was hunting. Legend
has it that he suddenly came upon a clearing where he saw a sight that left
him speechless. A tiger and a goat stood side by side drinking water from
the same place in the Tawi river. He was so struck by this unsual sight that
he decided to build a city on this soil where no-living creature seemed to
bear enmity towards each other.
