Kuanria Dam




Kuanria Dam is located on the outskirts of Daspalla in Nayagarh District of Orissa. It is built across the Kuanria River, which is a tributary of the Mahanadi River. The basic motive of constructing this dam was to help in the irrigation of the farmlands of this backward region.

The dam has become a popular picnic spot owing to its natural beauty and the adjoining forest region. Another nearby popular spot is the Kuanria Deer Park.
