Gateway to Buddhism

Sharda University in Kashmir boasts unique architecture, where open air learning of the predominant religions of the region – Hinduism and Buddhism, were taught thousands of years ago. Even today, the magnificent architecture of the university is intact, with stone steps that lead to the pinnacle.

Its site, by the Neelum Valley, attracts thousands of visitors, who marvel at the way the classrooms were put together. It is a site that inspires visitors for its breath-taking beauty, even while Kashmiris are in awe that their region inspired such a majestic university to study and learn in a tranquil atmosphere.
