about 100 nos temples are situated inside the town. Due to temple
culture, traditional Heritage, the local art & craft have also fame in the
world. Sonepur was ruled by chauhan dynasty before independence & it
was one of the business centres in the western orissa. Local forest
products, textiles, wood, paddy, Handicrafts were being transported to
cuttack through river mahanadi. After enhancement of road transport and shifting of District
Headquarter to Balangir, the river transportation was closed. The
mariner traditional artisans were affected and they have adapted

artisans are engaged in their own trade and struggle for their
existence. Presently 200 nos artisan on Tie & Dye, Tussar Work,
Appliqué, Terracotta are engaged for production & marketing.
About the Appliqué craft of Sonepur:-
We know the Sonepur town is famous for temples & textiles
craft sector is also practiced in the theme linked with temple culture. The
demands of the pilgrim like Chhatra, Flag, and Cloth with patchwork were

only available during fare & festival related to the local culture.
In the year 2007-08 NRDC, has taken initiative to revive the craft with the
financial assistance of Directorate of H & CI, Bhubaneswar & local DIC,
