Rudrapur Travel Guide

Rudrapur is the headquarters of the Udham Singh Nagar district in Uttarakhand, India. Referred popularly as the Gateway to Kumaon Hills. Udham Singh Nagar has been divided into three major subdivisions - Rudrapur, Kashipur, and Khatima. The prosperous town of Rudrapur is an exciting place to visit, and a tour of Rudrapur must feature on your trip to Uttarakhand.

Some historians believe that hundreds of years ago, Rudrapur village was established by a devotee of Lord Rudra or by a Hindu tribal chief called Rudra. Folklore has it that when Rudra was passing through the marshy land where Rudrapur stands now, his chariot got stuck into the mud, so he decided to build a temple and well at the site. The Atariya Temple, the most important place to visit on tour to Rudrapur, is the temple that he built.

A Rudrapur tour will introduce you to the prosperous district that boasts of many industries and is also blessed with very fertile land. Agriculture is the main occupation of the people here.
