Ashoka, who was the Great Grandson of King Shakuni and the son of King Sachinara's Grand Uncle. Ashoka, a true follower of his duties became the King of Great Land of Kashmir.
Also as in this tweet
The King Ashoka gave all his paap & was influenced by the teachings of Buddha and covered the Areas of Shushkaletra & Vitastatra with many Stupas.
The Vihara Dharmaranya built in Vitastatra area was so high that it's height was not able to be guessed by eyes.
Consisting of 96 lakhs of prosperous homes of people, this Great King Ashoka founded The Prosperous City of Srinagri as containing the Light of Prosperity of Lakshmi.
The Old Vijayesha Shrine and the hall was rebuilt by him with stone replacing the old one.
After that He built Two Temples named Ashokeshwara near Vijayesha.
This is the Legacy of Kashmir.
The Hindu-Buddhist culture of Kashmir ❤️❤️
Now what remained and what changed can be seen through pics.
