The history of Srinagar however, dates back to the 3rd century BC. The city was founded by the King Pravarasena II over 2,000 years ago when it was a part of the Maurya Empire, one of the largest empires that ruled the Indian subcontinent. With Ashoka, Srinagar became a major centre of Buddhism and in the 1st century, the region was under the control of Kushans and several other rulers of this dynasty who strengthened the Buddhist tradition.
The Hindu and the Buddhist tradition in Srinagar lasted until the 14th century, when the entire Kashmir valley, including Srinagar, came under the control of the several Muslim rulers, including the Mughals. Srinagar remained the capital of Yusuf Shah Chak, a ruler who was tricked by Akbar when he failed to conquer Kashmir by force. With Akbar the Mughal rule finally set in the Kashmir valley and also in Srinagar.
