Palakkad Fort & Malampuzha Dam Day Trip

Palakkad

Palakkad sits at the gap — the one break in the Western Ghats — which is why it has been a fort town for centuries. Hyder Ali built the present fort in 1766 on an older site. Malampuzha, a few kilometres away, has a large reservoir with a rock garden, a ropeway and a sculpture park, and the dam itself is a fine piece of mid-century engineering.
