Shivanasamudra, or Shiva Samudram, is a popular picnic spot
situated in the Mandya District of Karnataka. Shivanasamudra, which literally
stands for ‘Shiva’s Sea’, is a quaint island town situated on the River
Cauvery.
Being the second largest waterfall in India and the sixteen
largest in the world, Shivasamundram Falls are worth visiting for their sheer
beauty and refreshing environment that they offer.
This fall is almost
893 meters wide and falls from a height of 320 feet. Its captivating beauty and
sheer vastness creates a view which is worth remembering.
Shivasamudra is also
known for hosting India’s first hydroelectric project and Asia’s second
Hydroelectric power station in India.
The best time to visit Shivanasamudra waterfalls is during
the monsoon season that is from June to September as there will be more water
in the river Kaveri during this period. If you like to go till the bottom and
enjoy the scenic beauty there, it is better to visit during the Winter and
Summer season.
