Grand Anicut Thanjavur
There is much of the fascination about the historical things. It makes you wonder whenever you see any old and great thing that how such a wonderful thing survived such magnanimous time leaps and are still stood by heavily and holding roots in the ground without deterioration. One such example of Tamilian excellence and brilliance is the Grand Anicut.
This dam is 329 m long and 20 m wide. It is one of the most loved natural locations in Thanjavur city. It is actually not present in the main Thanjavur city but at a distance of 15 kms from the city. But it can be reached easily with local transport and private vehicles. The best thing about visiting this place is that there is no entry fee for enjoying this natural location.
The Grand Anicut is promoted by the Tamil Nadu Tourism Department and therefore many hotels and restaurants have opened near the place. The nearest railway station to Grand Anicut is Lalgudi railway station Junction which is 5 km away from Grand Anicut.
