Nashik Road (Marathi नाशिकरोड) (sometimes referred to as Nasik Road) is the name given to the suburb of Nashik that has the city's railway station. The name 'Nashik Road' was originally used for the town surrounding the station (about 8 km or 5 miles south-west from the heart of the Nashik city) and parts of the adjoining Deolali village, but has been administratively merged with the Nashik Municipal Corporation since 1984. Nashik Road is home to almost 150,000 residents and is one of the fastest growing suburbs of Nashik.

Famous quotes containing the word road:
“Here is no water but only rock
Rock and no water and the sandy road
The road winding above among the mountains
Which are mountains of rock without water
If there were water we should stop and drink
Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
