Gajanur Dam, Shimoga, Karnataka.
Gajanur is a village 12 km from Shivamogga in the Shimoga district of Karnataka, India. The Tunga River flows through the village. Gajanur is well known for the dam built across the river.
It appears more like an earthen dam. Just 10 km south-west of Shimoga, Gajanur village is on the way to Thirthahalli road that takes you to the Tunga Anicut built across River Tunga. The scenic surroundings replete with lush green paddy fields and areca nut plantations are a remarkable sight to behold. A kilometer away is an elephant camp, where a large number of elephants are trained every year.
