Salerno

Sorry, that one's not correct. Salerno was founded in 197 BC. A beautiful city with a rich history!

Because I'll be offline for a bit, I'll leave you with a little picture.

Here is another hint!

in medieval times, this was a centre for philosophy and learning in its country
it is by a river
founded after 1000 AD
it served as the old capital of a certain dynasty
the weather is really pleasant, with moderate summer and winter. Massive rainfall mainly from June to September
the population is over 150000 but less than 200000
the two important figures/Saints are performing a religious dance portraying a story, in the city that we are looking for

Dinapur

Danapur, also known as Dinapur was established in 1887. That is too late for the medieval timeline. So sadly, this is not the correct answer, albeit a good one. Keep it up!

Debre behran

I'm sure it's only a typo and you meant Debre Berhan (or Birhan) from Ethiopia. It ticks a lot of boxes, but alas, this too is not the correct city. For one, it is not located by a river. Don't give up, you did your homework.

I have a feeling it wont be long util someone comes up with the correct answer!
For the dedication towards and difficulty of the task of finding out which city I have on my mind, I up the reward.

The new loot will be: 2 credits

Religion wise it is composed of ca. 99% Hinduism and ca. 1% Islam; a great Saint of a specific sect has been born here and thus this is also a place of pilgrimage
