Find the distance between cities
Knowing how far apart two cities are is useful for travel planning, logistics and simple curiosity. This calculator computes the distance between two cities, with major Indian cities supported directly by name, or between any two sets of coordinates you provide, giving you the essential straight-line distance in a moment.
Why straight-line distance is the basis
The distance between two points on the Earth is computed from their coordinates using the great-circle distance, which is the shortest possible path over the surface of the sphere and therefore the meaningful straight-line distance between the places. This is deliberately not the same as the actual road distance, which is always somewhat longer because roads bend and follow terrain, but the straight-line figure is the correct and stable basis for understanding just how far apart two places really are and for rough travel planning. Supporting named cities as well as raw coordinates makes the tool convenient for common routes, since you do not have to go and look up the coordinates of each city yourself before you can get an answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the distance calculated?
As the great-circle distance between the two locations’ coordinates, the shortest path over the Earth’s surface, which is the straight-line distance.
Is this the road distance?
No. It is the straight-line (great-circle) distance, which is shorter than the road distance, since roads bend. It is the basis for how far apart places are.
Can I use city names?
Yes. Major Indian cities are supported by name, and you can also enter coordinates for any two points.
What is it useful for?
Understanding how far apart two places are and rough travel planning, where straight-line distance gives the essential sense of distance.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser.
