After the decline of Hastinapura, Ahar, located within the current-day Bulandshahr district, served as an important site for the Pandavas.

Around 1192 AD, during the invasion of Muhammad Ghori, the region came under Muslim rule, and the tower Baran was renamed Bulandshahr, which translates to “elevated town.”

Bulandshahr is renowned for its architectural marvels, traditional arts and crafts, and numerous historical mosques and religious sites.

The city played a key role in the First War of Indian Independence in 1857, with nationalists fighting against British rule.

Today, Bulandshahr remains a bustling center for agriculture, industry, and commerce, with connections to nearby metropolitan regions like Delhi and Meerut.

Ancient ruins found at locations like Bhatora, Veerpur, and Ghalibpur indicate the antiquity of Bulandshahr.

Several historical and ancient objects, such as coins and inscriptions, are preserved in museums like the Lucknow State Museum.

Bulandshahr is situated between the Ganges and Yamuna rivers, making it a fertile agricultural region that produces crops like wheat, potatoes, maize, sugar, and more.
