Siuri




Siuri, the headquarters of Birbhum District, is on the south of river Mor in the center of West Bengal. It is known for the 200 year old Damodar temple. The temple is around 11m tall and has a beautiful terracotta wall plate rendition of Radha and Krishna.

Siuri has flourishing industries such as rice milling, cotton and silk weaving, and furniture manufacture. Panagarh is an important location nearby. Siuri is 14 miles from Bakreshwar, the famous place of pilgrimage.

A mineral-rich town, Siuri is also an important transit point for road connections with Birbhum's China Clay reserves and ancient history-rich towns.
