Kashmir, Oct 4 (ANI): Photography enthusiasts thronged a 10- day long photo exhibition on Wednesday capturing the rich historical and cultural heritage of India's Kashmir. Visitors were mesmerized by the rare pictures of the rich culture of the valley, the lives of the royal family , ancient palaces and forts which for long have been the part of Kashmir's history but have been overlooked due to ignorance. The black and white pictures were a visual treat for the photography enthusiasts who said that it was very important that the present generation see these pictures and learn about their rich past. The organisers named the exhibition "Nostalgic Kashmir" and said that the pictures on display were just 30 per cent of the complete collection collected over the years. People from all walks of life thronged the venue to see and admire the rare photographs. The photographs in the exhibition include those of ancient crafts, shrines, temples, bridges, historical routes, landscapes, hunting expeditions and royal palaces.
