The valley of Kashmir sealed on all sides by a chain of mountains, gave rise to a feeling of aloofness among Kashmiris in the past and they were not in a mood to allow any foreigner except a few Jews to enter the valley. But with the passage of time,its treasures of language and culture were known to outside world, which tempted traders as well as conquerors to bring Kashmir under their influence. Traders and soldiers who came from time to time,brought with them their customs,traditions and manners. One cannot shut eyes to the glaring fact of history that the day-to-day life in the valley is full of foreign influence. History also bears witness that the ancient Kingdom of Gandhara, extending from Anantnag to Peshawar (Pakistan), had its cultural relations with Iran. Iranian influence on art is clear from the examination of tiles excavated from the Buddhist monastry at Harwan in Kashmir. ...URDU
