Nilphamari (/nɪlpɑːmɑːriː/; ; romanized :Neel-fa-maa-ree; pronounced [nilpʰamaɾi]), often called Nilphamari City (NpC), is a city that sits in the heart of Nilphamari District of Rangpur Division in Bangladesh. It serves as the administrative headquarters of Nilphamari District and is one of the major urban centers in the northern region, often referred to as the "Industrial City of the North" (). The city was founded in 1875 after formation of Mohokuma/Sub-Division Office of Nilphamari at Shakhamacha Hat on the bank of Bamondanga River. The city got its name from its Mohokuma/district name "Nilphamari", the cultural and historical name of this region.
