Jannat, Heaven.. Bungus valley...



 I don't remember for how many  hours I walked, to see this virgin valley called Bungus. Situated on the other side of Lolab valley.One of the relatively unknown areas of Kashmir...Bungus is a bowl shaped valley, no road connectivity. Pastures of the Bungus valley have finest grass which is considered ideal for cattle grazing,One has to walk through a dense forest... as soon as I entered the De vine valley, I don't know where my tiredness vanished, and there was just fresh, fragrance in air all around me, wild horses running, birds, flowers, noise of flowing water........  JANNAT
