Dry Winter Season In Kashmir
Tourists are riding horses beside a partially frozen stream in Gulmarg, a ski destination, on a dry winter day in the Baramulla district of Indian-administered Kashmir, on January 23, 2024. The Kashmir valley, known for its snow-clad picturesque landscapes, is experiencing an unexpected absence of snowfall this year. This climatic shift in the region is already impacting the tourism sector, and it could be fatal for the health of the region's glaciers and water bodies. The snowless season this year has prompted thousands of tourists to cancel or defer their bookings in the Kashmir valley. (Photo by Muzamil Mattoo/NurPhoto)
