Banasura Sagar Dam, situated in Padinjarathara in Kerala is the largest earth dam in India and second largest dam in Asia. Banasura Dam is under the control of Padinjarathara KSEB Station. India's first operating floating solar power plant was established in Banasura Dam. The dam is surrounded by Banasura Hills.
Banasura Hill is situated in Padinjarathara and it is one of the tallest mountains in the Western Ghats of the Wayanad district, Kerala, India. The hill is named after Banasura, a mythical character of Indian legends. It is one of the highest peaks exceeding 2,000m between Nilgiris and Himalayas after Chembra Peak.
In the heart of Kerala's lush embrace lies a sanctuary of untamed beauty and wild whispers – the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary. Here, amidst the verdant foliage and mist-kissed mountains, nature unveils its grandeur in a symphony of life.
Step into this sanctuary, and you step into a realm where time dances to the rhythm of nature's pulse. It's a canvas painted with the vibrant hues of the Western Ghats, where every stroke tells a tale of survival, adaptation, and coexistence.
