Rampur, Historical city in Uttar Pradesh, India

Located at an elevation of 288 meters, Rampur extends along the Kosi River, 24 kilometers from Moradabad in northwestern Uttar Pradesh state.

The city emerged as a princely state in 1774 when Nawab Faizullah Khan established his territory after the Rohilla War and renamed the area from Kather.

The Raza Library in Rampur maintains a collection of 12,000 manuscripts and Mughal miniature paintings, preserving the intellectual heritage of the region.

The railway junction and road network connect Rampur to major cities like Moradabad and Bareilly, facilitating transportation of agricultural products and manufactured goods.

The city developed its own knife manufacturing tradition, creating the Rampuri chaaku, while also breeding the Rampur Greyhound, a hunting dog of the region.
