Avantipur, Kashmir

One of the oldest (9th century) and only Vishnu temple close to Srinagar. Between Avantipur and Anantnag (aka mini Islamabad) is a location famous for production of Willow Tree cricket bats. Also 16 km south of Srinagar (on the way to Avantipur) lay a few fields of Indian Safron (closely guarded when in bloom).
