Anantnag, city, northwestern Jammu and Kashmir union territory, northern India. It lies about 30 miles (50 km) southeast of Srinagar, on the Jhelum River north of the Pir Panjal Range.

Anantnag is an agricultural trade centre and the southern headquarters for navigation by large boats in the Vale of Kashmir. Many springs issue from the land around the city, including the slightly sulfurous Anant Nag. Anantnag was formerly the chief population centre of the valley and contains a summer palace, a mosque, and a shrine. Although the city was heavily damaged by the Kashmir earthquake of 2005, its population grew significantly between 2001 and 2011. Pop. (2001) 63,067; (2011) 109,433.
