Patiala district, Administrative district in Punjab, India
Patiala district spans across southeastern Punjab with agricultural fields, traditional settlements, and the city of Patiala as its administrative center.
The district emerged from the former Patiala State, established in 1763 by Sikh chieftain Ala Singh who constructed the foundational Qila Mubarak fortress.
The district preserves the Patiala gharana musical tradition, while local artisans continue creating traditional Patiala-style turbans and distinctive clothing designs.
The district maintains strong transportation connections through its railway junction and road network, linking major cities including Chandigarh, Amritsar, and Delhi.
The Kali Devi Temple, commissioned in 1936 to protect against floods, remains an important religious landmark where annual ceremonies take place.
