As I hesitate to jump across a narrow brook, my friend clears it and moves on towards the exit

I am in a public park in Pahalgam, Kashmir, India. To move oh ahead, I had to jump across a not too narrow stream- my friend seen here- cleared it quickly and moves on as I hesitate and think a thousand times before jumping across- at 65, I'm not exactly in my prime. In the distance is a Hindu temple next to the park- it was refreshing to see a Hindu temple in Pahalgam, Kashmir, India. That is the Mamal (Mamleshwar) temple located next to a public park. It is one of the oldest temples in the Kashmir Valley and was built by king Jayasimha. Set on the bank of River Lidder, Pahalgam, the temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Back to the park, as you can see, apart from the green grass, most of the bush in the park is fairly barren- meaning devoid of flowers etc. This is a bit off season for the flora in Srinagar- in fact I was disappointed that all the apple orchards, saffron fields and chilly (hot pepper) bushes and lavender fields were all devoid of flowers or fruit (as the case may be)- it's off season, come back in September, they all said. Pahalgam is located in the Lidder Valley, which is part of the Great Himalayan range. Notes and more pictures about Pahalgam appear elsewhere in this album. (Pahalgam, Kashmir, India, Apr/ May 2024)

A Hindu temple across the street from the public park in Pahalgam

It was refreshing to see a Hindu temple in Pahalgam, Kashmir, India. This is the Mamal (Mamleshwar) temple located next to a public park. This is one of the oldest temples in the Kashmir Valley and was built by king Jayasimha. Set on the bank of River Lidder, Pahalgam, the temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. The temple is eight square feet internally and has a front porch supported on the two columns. A subsidiary shrine next to temple bears the Hindu symbol- the trident- right in the centre of the hall. (see previous picture earlier in this album). I am in a public park in Pahalgam, Kashmir, India, and this Hindu shrine is located just outside this public park. As you can see, apart from the green grass, most of the bush in the park is fairly barren- meaning devoid of flowers etc. This is a bit off season for the flora in Srinagar- in fact I was disappointed that all the apple orchards, saffron fields and chilly (hot pepper) bushes and lavender fields were all devoid of flowers or fruit (as the case may be)- it's off season, come back in September, they all said.

I was refreshing to see a Hindu temple in Pahalgam, Kashmir

I was refreshing to see a Hindu temple in Pahalgam, Kashmir. Note the Hindu symbol- the trident- visible right in the centre of the temple hall. This is actually a subsidiary shrine next to the main temple, a picture of which appears later in this album. (see next picture). I am in a public park in Pahalgam, Kashmir, India, and this Hindu shrine is located just outside this public park. As you can see, apart from the green grass, most of the bush in the park is fairly barren- meaning devoid of flowers etc. This is a bit off season for the flora in Srinagar- in fact I was disappointed that all the apple orchards, saffron fields and chilly (hot pepper) bushes and lavender fields were all devoid of flowers or fruit (as the case may be)- it's off season, come back in September, they all said.
