Few clues for visitors. References. Appendix. "This book is the outcome of my decade long studies on the Valley of Flowers. The ethereal and beautiful Valley of Flowers was notified as a National Park in 1982, and since then it has been caught in a strange controversy. The point of contention is that the conservation attempt is proving to be the problem rather than the solution. For the past two decades, there have been occasional reports about weeds choking the plant diversity of the region, but none of them is based on an in-depth ecological study, and it appears that most of them are merely on the basis of speculations. The present work is an attempt to compile the existing literature as well as first-hand information on the floral and faunal diversity, phenology, the valley's beautiful landscape, tourism, status of medicinal plants, structure of forest, and status of wildlife. The grazing controversy and conservation dilemma that is mainly based on speculative arguments, has also been addressed, with realistic data collected from the valley by the author. Besides, a comparative study on the status of medicinal plants across the various pressure zones (heavily grazed to protected areas), and the change in forest cover and composition due to historical use pattern, are also addressed in the book.".…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Being blessed to wander in some of the most fascinating hills and valleys of nature, I have been endeavoring for long to put these stories together. I offer here the elements that appeal most to me during my wanderings in the jungles, meadows, villages and towns, especially in the abode of gods and goddesses - the Himalaya.I pick up one of the tales as a title of the book 'Nanda's Neelkanth'. Neelkanth is one of the several names of the Lord Shiva, the Hindu god. Many snow-clad peaks of the Himalaya are named after the gods and goddesses and Neelkanth is one of the most magnificent peaks. It attracts every human soul not only to its brilliant hues and majestic snowy peak but Neelkanth, as the Mahadev, also remains the source of spirituality for billions. Likewise, His consort, Nanda who is adorned with innumerable names including the Gaura, has been venerated in the form of beautiful mountains of the Himalaya. The quiet and unquiet woods, the elusive and elegant wildlife, the people and their culture and their struggle for living are the other elements in this bouquet of experiences.…
