Pahalgam is the place where you get this view of the Lidder river. One of the most vibrant and lively rivers of the valley, the Lidder interestingly offers peace and tranquility amidst the gushing sounds of its strong current. It is a nice place to spend time and to soak in the beauty of nature at its best. The freshness of the atmosphere that surrounds you in this place is missed when you have to leave this heaven on earth when your tour ends. The Lidder River offers an amazing enviroment where nature is at its best in terms of the scenery it offers and the calm bliss it showers upon you.

The process of painting the surroundings and the flow of the river itself was a satisfying experience. Every brushstroke reminds you of the time spent in such a pleasant environment. Every detail brings back memories of the joyful ride and carefree strolls you took along the banks of the Lidder. Snowcapped peaks appear at a distance from the valley, however, their sight is pleasing, especially, when the white snow glistens in the evening sunlight.
