KRS Reservoir
The KRS Reservoir, also known as the Krishna Raja Sagara Dam, is located in the Mandya district of Karnataka, India. It was constructed in the early 20th century and serves as a crucial source of irrigation and drinking water for the surrounding regions. The reservoir is formed by the damming of the Cauvery River, which is one of the major rivers in southern India.
The KRS Reservoir is not only important for water supply but also supports local agriculture by providing irrigation to vast farmlands. Additionally, it is a popular tourist destination, featuring scenic views and recreational activities. The nearby Brindavan Gardens enhance its appeal, attracting visitors with beautifully landscaped gardens and musical fountain shows.
