Vani vilasa Sagara Dam

 Kannada speakers refer to the Vani vilasa Sagara Dam as the Marikanive. Sir M. Vishveshwarayya, a legendary figure, is credited with building the dam. If you look at it from one specific angle, it resembles a map of India.

                                    The dam serves as the primary water supply for the hirer and Chitradurga areas. Canals are used to irrigate an area that is greater than one hundred square kilometres in size.

                                    The construction of the dam was begun by the regent queen, who was the widow of Maharaja Chamaraja Wodeyar. She is the youngest daughter of the Maharaja of Mysore, and her name is Vanivilas.
