Śringavera is a settlement associated with Guha and situated along the Gangá route. Its brief appearance in the travel narrative makes it a point of passage: the river crossing leads the king and his retinue onward to the settlement.

Setting and Route

The account places Śringavera immediately after a crossing of the Gangá. The sequence links the settlement to the river as a practical landmark on a journey, rather than describing its buildings, boundaries, or landscape in detail.

Appearance in the Narrative

After making his way across the river, the king reaches Śringavera with his host and royal retinue. The passage records the movement of a large travelling party through the place but gives no further account of their reception or activities there.

Narrative Significance

Śringavera helps give the itinerary a concrete geography: a river crossing is followed by arrival at a named settlement. Its association with Guha connects the place to the broader route through the region, while the surviving description emphasizes passage and movement rather than a distinct episode set within the settlement.
