Salur mandal

Salur mandal is an administrative division in Parvathipuram Manyam district spanning roughly 485 square kilometers across Andhra Pradesh. This area contains one urban center and numerous rural villages with diverse settlement patterns and land use.

This mandal was historically part of Visakhapatnam district before undergoing several administrative transfers. It became part of Parvathipuram Manyam district in 2022 following its creation, after previously shifting between Srikakulam and Vizianagaram districts.

Telugu is spoken by residents throughout the region, and you will notice how villages maintain their own local governance structures. Traditional customs shape daily life in the smaller settlements, where community decisions are made through established village councils.

The region is readily accessible with a mix of urban and rural infrastructure spread across both the town and villages. Getting around requires different approaches in rural areas compared to the urban center, so plan your route based on where you intend to go.

The mandal sits directly on the border with Odisha state to the north, making it a natural meeting point between two regions. This frontier location has shaped the character of the area and its connections across state lines.
