Pros: It's a peaceful and quiet spot. Great for a relaxed drive or a short break to enjoy nature.
Driving around the dam offers lovely views of the surrounding scenery and the roads are good
You can view the dam from various spots along the road but there are two or three spots where you can reach near water(Safety is priority)
You can take some good photos of the landscape and water views. Better for a quick visit.
The main and foremost highlight of this place is the delicious food, particularly Kappa/Kelangu and Meen Curry (Tapioca and Dam Fish Curry)😋. While leaving after enjoying the view, make sure to visit a local hotel and try these dishes; it's a must!
Cons: For safety reasons, it's not recommended to bath or swim into the water. You can chit-chat near the bay with friends, families or whomever by enjoying the view
Apart from the view, not having enough activities. Generally, people spend around 30 minutes to an hour. That's all.
