an ideal picnic spot



The beautiful road to Sardar Sarovar dam- rural village type scenes




The magnificent Sardar Sarvar dam - overflows








The clouds kisses the mountains and river water gushes with full flow






The thick dark monsoon clouds envelops the sky







The side view of the magnificent Dam






The water flows through the channel


The lake in the Sardar Sarovar dam- boat ferrying for tourists




One of the bridge -enroute to the dam



River Narmada -ghat side of the Dattatreya swami temple




The evening dusk and the sun set at the river banks




River Narmada in full flow



SUNSET FROM RIVER NARMADA FROM THE GHATS

Last Sunday ie 15th July, we visited the Sardar Sarovar Dam project.

The dam is huge and amazing. Due to monsoon rains the water is overflowing from the dam. The site is 83kms away from Vadodara. When we proceeding through the road we could experience the lush, rich green rural feel. The agricultural lands were full of water and with full of agri activities, bullocks, cows and cattles are moving here and there and in may places sitting in the road itself. The road is well laid and pleasant to ride. There are tress in the two sides of the road. on going further, we could experience pleasant hill station like feeling. The clouds gather to cover intensely, and the sky becomes dark and it starts drizzling. The sight of the dam with water overflowing from it, amidst the thick dark clouds hovering its head, surrounded by lush green hills, with swirling waters in the narmada river, and the filled canals is an unforgettable experience. The Dattatrya temple and the ghats where the river narmada flows is an unique experience to watch.
