Brahmapur, Municipal corporation in southeastern Odisha, India
Brahmapur extends across the coastal plain at 26 meters elevation, situated 14 kilometers from the Bay of Bengal along the Kolkata-Chennai national highway point.
The settlement originated in 1672 and gained municipal status in 1867, later becoming a significant administrative center during the British governance of southern Odisha.
The city maintains its reputation as the Silk City of India through specialized weaving communities producing Patta sarees following traditional techniques.
The Howrah-Chennai railway line connects Brahmapur to major cities, while the Rangeilunda Airport provides air transportation services for the region.
Local weavers descended from craftsmen who migrated from Rajahmundry in the late 17th century at the request of regional rulers.
