A tourist watches a Himalayan black bear as it strolls in the Dachigam National Park, some 25 km from Srinagar. Tourists are now going bear-spotting on wildlife safaris in this scenic wilderness area where Kashmiri rebels and Indian troops used to exchange gunfire. Ironically, in a first of its kind, two top Hizbul Mujahideen commanders have been killed in an encounter with a wild bear in Shopian district of the South Kashmir. Courtesy: Tauseef Mustafa/AFP

A Kashmiri villager collects saffron flowers from a field in Khrew. Saffron has been grown in Kashmir since the Mughal period, which began in the 16th century. In highly-drained clay-loam soil, the saffron crop is sown on an estimated 17,000 hectares of land in Kashmir in the months of May and June and the flowers are harvested at the onset of autumn. It takes some 1,70,000 flowers to get a kilogram (2.2 lbs) of the precious spice. Courtesy: Fayaz Kabli/Reuters
