Bhakra Nangal DamWith its vast water reservoir and attractive location, Bhakra Nangal Dam attracts a large number of tourists.

The construction of Bhakra Nangal Dam was started in the year 1948 and was completed by the end of year 1963.

Engineering comes to perfection in the Bhakra Dam, which serves as the hallmark of science and modern technology. It is virtually the central nervous system of northern India, supplying electricity to the entire region and helping run industries, corporate houses, etc. The dam is constructed across the perennial river Satluj and stands located in the midst of the natural beauty of Shivalik ranges. The place offers an excellent spot for a day’s picnic.

Described as 'New Temple of Resurgent India’ by Nehru - the first Prime Minister of India, Bhakra Dam was a part of the larger multipurpose Bhakra Nangal Project, whose aims were to prevent floods in the Sutlej-Beas river valley, to provide irrigation to adjoining states and to provide hydro-electricity. Besides, Nangal hydel Channel and Anandpur Sahib Channel are used for power generation and irrigation purpose. The place is well connected with Chandigarh city, which is 105 km away.
