Malampuzha Dam is a wonderful dam in the Indian state of
Tamil Nadu. This is a beautifully laid garden with a variety of brilliant and colourful flowers. It has the meticulously manicured grass lawn, the marvellous meadows and fabulous fountains displaying an orchestrated water show.
The site of the Malampuzha Dam lies in the cauldron formed by the Western Ghats. The great stretch of the serene lake formed by the dam provides boating facilities. During the cool dark night, numerous lights sparkle like bright pearls arranged on a black sheet of cloth. This is a rare beauty. These lights are usually illuminated only in the week ends. On other days, it can be arranged through the executive engineer after paying a fixed fee.

An aquarium and pleasure rides like the boating and the ropeway winch, a snake park and a children`s park are among other attractions of the Malampuzha Dam.
