Markets in Srinagar

Not for the faint of heart or the animal lover but markets in mainly populated Muslim areas are halal. So you will see plenty of freshly killed chickens and mutton, and blood running down the street. Nothing goes to waste brains and intestines are consumed just as hardily as the nice chunk of meat. The markets don't smell as bad you would think because it is freshly killed that day. But what got me was the amount of men doing the shopping really only a few women to be found out and about.
