| About Kolhapur Tourism |
Kolhapur
is a blend of ancient tradition and modern influences. The city is on
the banks of River Panchganga and reflects a rich heritage along with a
growing industrial sector. In 1945, excavations on the Brahmagiri hill
in Kolhapur revealed the existence of an ancient town dating back to the Roman era. One of the most important cities of Maharashtra, Kolhapur
had different dynasties ruling it in the past, but it was under the
rule of the Marathas that it became a cultural hub with an active
drama, music, painting and craft scene. The city is also dotted with
temples built by the Satavahna kings. Of late, Kolhapur has become a prominent centre for the Marathi film industry.
