Srinagar, College town in Pauri Garhwal district, India

The town stretches along the banks of the Alaknanda River, forming an educational center with multiple institutions at 560 meters above sea level.

Founded in 1947 as a university town, Srinagar grew rapidly after the establishment of Hemvati Nandan Bahuguna Garhwal University, which expanded regional education.

The Sanskrit language studies and traditional Garhwali arts programs at the university contribute to preserving the regional heritage of Uttarakhand.

Local buses connect Srinagar to major cities including Rishikesh and Dehradun, with frequent service running from the central bus station near Alaknanda Bridge.

Students and professors conduct research on Himalayan geology and biodiversity at the university's specialized mountain research center.
