Srisailam Dam

One of South India's largest dams on the Krishna River, known for reservoir views.

Srisailam Dam spans the Krishna River a short drive from the temple town, ranking among the largest dams in South India and serving as a major hydroelectric and irrigation project for the region. The reservoir it creates stretches back through dramatic gorge scenery cut into the Nallamala hills, offering visitors sweeping views different from the temple's forested hilltop setting. The dam marks the edge of the Nagarjunsagar-Srisailam Tiger Reserve, making it a natural stop for travelers combining pilgrimage with scenery.
