Solapur, Industrial metropolis in Maharashtra, India
Solapur stands at 457 meters above sea level, spanning across the Bhima and Seena river basins in the southwestern region of Maharashtra state.
The city's name originates from sixteen villages that merged, with rulers including Andhrabhratyas, Chalukyas, Rashtrakutas, and Yadavas shaping its development through centuries.
The Nandidhwaj procession during Makar Sankranti marks the marriage celebration of Lord Siddheshwar, drawing numerous participants to the streets of Solapur.
The railway station connects to major Indian cities, while the newly opened airport in 2024 provides additional transportation options for travelers and businesses.
Solapur Municipal Council made history as the first Indian council to raise the national flag in 1930 during the independence movement.
