Analysing the economic impact of tourism in Kashmir Gulzar Arif, Khan Tanveer Ahmad, Hamid Wasia Abstract Kashmir, often described as the Switzerland of Asia is a natural magnet for tourism with its alpine forests, balmy climate, high mountains, lakes, rushing streams, ski slopes and verdant valleys. Its rich culture and thriving handicrafts are additional assets as are its well-known pilgrimage sites. However decades of unrest and periodic military clashes between Indian and Pakistan forces have destroyed the tourist industry (even though Jammu and Ladakh have attracted a rising number of tourists) and prevented the development of the economic potential of Kashmir. This article highlights the need to restore peace and stability in the valley to bring the desired prosperity. Top | | |
