Kendrapara district, Administrative district in Central division, India.
The district spans 2,644 square kilometers along the eastern coast of Odisha state, bordered by the Bay of Bengal with a 48-kilometer coastline.
Kendrapara district emerged on April 1, 1993, when authorities separated this coastal territory from the existing Cuttack district to form a new administrative region.
The district celebrates the annual Rath Yatra festival, where residents gather to witness the procession of Lord Baladevjew through the streets.
The region contains nine administrative blocks, including Aul, Derabish, Garadpur, Mahakalapada, Marshaghai, Kendrapara, Rajanagar, Rajkanika, and Patamundai.
Bhitarkanika National Park within the district maintains extensive mangrove forests and provides protection for numerous crocodile species in their natural habitat.
