Kashmir and Kashmiris
Kashmir is very
beautiful. It is surrounded by hills. Forests cover hills. There is a
variety of trees in the jungles. Kashmir has four seasons. Spring summer
autumn and winter. The visitors come from outside in the spring. Farmers come to
the fields and sow paddy. It is not very hot in summer. Paddy is harvested in
autumn. People pluckripe fruits from the trees. It snows in the winter. Earth
becomes white because of the snow. People keep themselves warm with the
help of kangri. It brings warmth. Kashmiris are mostly rice eaters. They take
mutton, hakh or other vegetables with rice. Kashmiris enjoy salty tea and kehwa.
They take bread with the tea. The bread is brought from the bakerman. Kashmiris
are hospitable. They honour the guest.
