Kashmir — Hindu, Buddhist and Muslim Architecture is a richly illustrated monograph by Manohar Kaul, presenting a cultural and architectural journey through the Kashmir Valley. As the first volume in the Indian Culture Series, this book aims to make the architectural heritage of the region accessible and meaningful to the general reader.

Drawing from diverse traditions, the book explores temples, stupas, and mosques — offering insight into the grandeur and harmony of Kashmir's religious architecture. With a lucid and engaging style, Kaul guides the reader through both well-known and forgotten monuments, aiming to rekindle appreciation for sites that are milestones in India’s cultural history.

Supported by photographs from the Archaeological Survey of India and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, this work stands as both a visual document and a scholarly introduction. It invites readers, art lovers, and scholars alike to understand Kashmir’s architectural legacy beyond sectarian lines — as a reflection of unity, diversity, and historical continuity.
