TARAKA DAM

Hirehally, Karnataka, India

Share

The dam, constructed in 1983 to irrigate 17,400 acres of land, had filled up for the first time this season since its completion. Dam looks phenomenal when they let the water out of the gates, you can actually stand right next to the water gushing out. Good place to have a walk in the evening with a good sunset.
