Vani vilasa sagara, Irrigation reservoir in Chitradurga District, Karnataka, India

The Vani Vilasa Sagara stretches across the Vedavathi River with its large water storage capacity of 30 Tmcft and full reservoir level of 130 feet.

The royal family of Mysore pledged their jewelry to fund the construction of this dam in 1903 during the reign of Maharaja Chamaraja Wodeyar X.

The reservoir area includes the Panchavati gardens, which contain a collection of medicinal plants representing different regional agricultural traditions.

The reservoir supplies water to multiple towns including Hiriyur, Hosadurga, Chitradurga, and Challakere while irrigating over 100 square kilometers of agricultural land.

From one viewing angle, the reservoir forms a natural outline that mirrors the geographical shape of India within the landscape of Karnataka.
