Kallanai
Dam is one of the major attractions in Tamil Nadu which was built nearly
2000 years ago. The Kallanai Dam was built by the Cholas in the 2nd
century AD and is one of the oldest functioning water diversion
structures in the world which are still in use.
Made of
stone, the dam is 329 m long and 20 m wide and still very much in use.
Additions have been made in the form of a road bridge on top of the dam.
The place is located in peaceful and lush green vicinity and is a great
picnic spot. |
