Welcome To Kolhapuri (kolhapur's) Special

Once during an interview for a local newspaper a young entrepreneur born and brought up at small town was asked by the interviewer,

"A talented and God gifted person like you could have made a better fortune had he been working at some Metro City, We also hear that you had a Job opportunity abroad which you turned down. What's keeping you back in this small town ? ".

 

"This small town has some magical powers. The culture, the people, the atmosphere, the spirituality, everything here is so beautiful that not only me but all the people associated with this place hold the city high in their hearts" was the reply.

The Entrepreneur was none other than the project in charge of this website Mr. Premanshu and the small town - KOLHAPUR of course.

 

Kolhapur a city with highest per capita income in Maharashtra has many peculiarities. From food to clothing , from sports to history Kolhapur has its own style. People of Kolhapur are generally referred to as Kolhapuri or Kolhapurkar. It really is a privilege to be called Kolhapuri as Kolhapur is a great place in itself.

 

Marathi () is the prime language that is spoken in this part of the world. Apart from that Hindi , English & a little bit of Kananda is used. Kolhapur's Marathi is also (in) famous for the abusive words which otherwise can lead to heavy fights, but said so softly and beautifully that they don't hurt. Also since Kolhapuri people are soft and kind hearted, this doesnot affect the dignity much.

 

Proximity to Karnataka state, Goa & Kokan region of Maharashtra has led to Mingling a large variety of cultures at Kolhapur. Certain locations at Kolhapur are exotic tourist attractions. The World Famous Temple of Goddess Mahalaxmi "AMBABAI" blesses the city and guards all evil. Also Old Palace , New Palace  , Rankala Lake , Panahalgad etc. are the places a tourist cannot afford to miss. The details on Tourism at Kolhapur is available HERE.
