Virpur (Also known as Birpur [by whom?]) is a village located Mahisagar district in the Indian state of Gujarat, 40 kilometres (25 mi) from Godhra Junction.

The village is thought to be around 400 years old.[citation needed]

The Mahisagar river flows some 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from the village and this, too, has religious symbolism. It was once a site of pilgrimage for yatris who came to pay homage to a goddess.

There are several schools in the village and the presence of students studying technical and engineering subjects has attracted companies to offer on-campus jobs.
