Francois Bernier writes the following about the different produces of Kashmir :-
“The merchants who every year travel from mountain to mountain to collect the fine wool with which shawls are manufactured, all agree in saying that between all the mountains still dependent upon Kachemire there are many fine stretches of country....
The valley of Kashmir is well-known throughout the world for its Natural beauty. Here nature has been prodigal enough in crowning this ancient land with all its splendor and glory complimented beautifully by the unparalleled heritage of the breathtaking #KashyapKaKashmir ! (1/16)
The sacred valley called Rishi wari till now, abounds in sacred places, Tirthas and Asthans. Long ago at the dawn of civilisation when the sons of Rishi Kashyapa from plains came to settle here they brought with them their traditions, religion, mythology etc. etc. (2/16)
The civilisational history of the Kashmir Valley is reflected through its temples — those that stand magnificently today after thousands of years of their construction, and remnants of others that were destroyed by invaders. (3/16) #KashyapKaKashmir .@LostTemple7

The true history has been lost and our memories fail to recall how deeply ingrained Kashmir is in Santan samskriti.
The violent exodus of the last remenants of Santan culture happened no so far ago.
