Travel Tips Of Markonahalli Dam
Tumakuru, Karnataka, India
Markonahalli Dam is built across the Shimsha River and is a unique engineering feat. Commissioned by the Maharaja of Mysore and designed by Sir M. Visvesvaraya, it was the first in the world to use automatic siphon spillways. This technology allows the dam to release water automatically when it rea ches maximum capacity without manual gate operation. The reservoir is vast and surrounded by lush greenery, making it a popular spot for birdwatching and photography. It serves as a vital water source for agriculture in the Tumakuru district. The dam has a peaceful environment, away from the hustle of the highway. Visitors can walk along the embankment and enjoy the cool breeze. The structure stands as a tribute to Indian engineering brilliance in the early 20th century. It is an ideal spot for a day trip, especially during the monsoon when the siphons are active. The sight of water gushing through the siphons is a rare and spectacular experience for visitors.
