Madras is a city located in Jefferson County, Oregon, situated in the high desert plateau of Central Oregon. Originally named "The Basin" after its location in a natural basin, the city was later renamed to Madras in 1903. The area has a rich Native American history, particularly connected to the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs, whose reservation is located nearby.

The city serves as an important agricultural center in the region, known for its seed crops, potato farming, and hay production. The surrounding landscape is characterized by striking geological features, including the Cascade Mountain Range to the west and the Crooked River National Grassland to the east.

Madras gained particular attention in 2017 when it was considered one of the prime viewing locations for the total solar eclipse. The city's cultural heritage is preserved through various historical sites and its proximity to significant Native American cultural areas makes it an interesting destination for those interested in the region's indigenous history.
