Geography & terrain

Tosa Maidan lies in the Budgam district of Jammu and Kashmir at about 3,000 m, 60 km from Srinagar and 20 km from Chrar-e-Sharief — the meadow station of the region, its 40-sq-km grounds, the horses and the views set on the Pir Panjal range.

History & culture

The meadow's story runs with the 2000s reopening era — the meadow station of the 40-sq-km grounds and the 2000s-era reopening of the tourist life, with the meadow's modern role as the offbeat stop of the Srinagar circuit and the home of the 40-sq-km grounds and the horse corners and the 2010s-era camps; the meadow's history of the 1990s-era army life and the grazing seasons, gives Tosa Maidan its meadow character.
