Supper place to visit

Beautiful place to hang out during monsoon in Junagadh. Road to the dam is also very beautiful
Very good
Its at the foothill og the Girinar mountains. If you are walking towards it on foot chances are someone will ask you if you wish to be dropped there unlike anywhere else that I have seen..thats the Gujrati culture of helping ...The place pretty scenic but I would recommend if the local administration can plan for boating to make it more lively.Also being closer to the Girinar mountains.. trekking routes can be initiated to let tourists get a feel of walking in the forest and climbing the adjacent peaks.
Very beautiful... Favorite place since my childhood days...
