'''Bhagalpuri silk''' or [[Tussar silk]] is a traditional style of [[silk]] [[sari]]s. This material is used for making saris named as [[Bhagalpur sari]]. Bhagalpur is also known as "silk city" of India. Bhagalpuri silk is made from cocoons of ''[[Antheraea paphia]]'' silkworms. This species, also known as Vanya silkworm is native to India. These silkworms live in the wild forests, in trees belonging to ''[[Terminalia (plant)|Terminalia]]'' species. Nathnagar is a place where Bhagalpuri silk is mainly processed. Besides sari, shawls, [[Kurti top|kurtis]], and other garments are also made from Bhagalpuri silk.<br />
