Murshidabad

Murshidabad (Berhampore), the old Nawabi capital of Bengal, is famous for its heritage silk handlooms — the GI-tagged Baluchari sari and the ancient Murshidabad tussar/mulberry silk — along with GI-tagged chhanabora, the signature sweet of the district. The Khagra neighbourhood of Berhampore is renowned for bell-metal and brass utensils (Khagrai Kansha), and the district's farms supply the GI-tagged Himsagar mango. Together these silk, sweet, metalware and mango products make up the district's buyable heritage.
