Simly Dam, Embankment dam in Islamabad Capital Territory, Pakistan.
The earthen structure spans 313 meters in length and rises 80 meters high on the Soan River, 30 kilometers east of Islamabad.
Construction of the dam began after planning in 1962, with delays extending the completion date from the intended 1972 to 1983.
The dam area functions as a gathering place for local residents who participate in water activities and observe regional wildlife species.
Simly Dam maintains a storage capacity of 35,463,000 cubic meters, providing drinking water to Islamabad through melting snow and natural springs.
The surrounding environment hosts diverse wildlife including Asiatic leopards, golden jackals, rhesus macaques, and yellow-throated martens.
