Pothundy Dam Gardens - Hidden gem in Kerala

The scenic Pothundy Dam Gardens are located in the Palakkad district of Kerala, India. The Pothundy Dam, an irrigation dam built in the 19th century, is one of the oldest buildings in the state.

The dam is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts and picnickers due to its picturesque surroundings and stunning views of the Western Ghats.

The grounds surrounding Pothundy Dam are quiet, well-kept spaces. Pothundy Dam Gardens is a lovely place to discover the solitude of nature and have a quiet day amidst Kerala’s breathtaking scenery. Picnics are popular in the garden area.

With the dam and surrounding hills serving as a breathtaking background, families frequently visit this location to unwind for the day in the cool breeze. Open everyday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
