The stunning valley of Bangus, which is tucked away in the northern part of the Kupwara district, is one of Kashmir's best-kept secrets. The valley is now growing in popularity among tourists because of its lush vegetation and abundance, as well as its incredible natural beauty.
The 10,000-foot-high valley has only just started to see an increase in visitor traffic as a result of attempts to promote it as a tourist destination in Kashmir.
