Search for another dam
Posted By thecouple
One more dam on the way - Bhadra dam is about 35 km from Shimoga and borders Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary. After the ‘mis-directions’ in Kolhapur, we make it doubly sure before taking any turn. This time too, we did that many times.
The dam is open for visitors, but no vehicles are allowed inside. Walking for an hour was not an option for us.
So we decided against going inside and instead had a view from the main road, where the dam could be seen clearly.
The forest in the catchment area of Bhadra dam is named as Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary. Again, rules and time worked against us. No private vehicles allowed inside the sanctuary. A standard safari in the forest department’s vehicle would have taken at least 3 hours. And since it is monsoon, chances of sighting animals are minimal. So we moved on.

About us
We, Unny & Bindhu, are a couple currently based in Mumbai. The best introduction can be: He (Unny) - Armchair traveler. Reluctant reader. Would-be writer. Amateur photographer, Day dreamer… and likewise, a pretender of too many things.
She (Bindhu) - Add a few more pretensions - a good cook, a good host, etc. Easily mistaken for a serious, intellectual reader, but far from it. Engineer by qualification; freelance writer by choice. Also volunteers as a teacher for Akanksha, an NGO.
