Phulabani is a town and the administrative headquarters of Kandhamal district in Odisha, India. Located centrally within the district at an elevation of about 750 meters, it is surrounded by natural beauty including forests, waterfalls like Putudi Waterfall, wildlife sanctuaries such as Tirkarpada Wildlife Sanctuary and Satkosia Tiger Reserve, making it an attractive destination for nature lovers and explorers.
The region is mainly rural with a significant tribal population, notably the Kandha tribe, who are known for their hospitality and traditional culture. Agriculture is a primary occupation, with crops like paddy, maize, pulses, cotton, and oilseeds grown locally.

The town experiences a tropical climate with the best visiting period from October to February.
