#1. Main features of Chandil Dam: Why this place is a center of attraction for tourists
Chandil Dam, built on the Swarnarekha River, is famous throughout Jharkhand and surrounding states for its unique geographical structure and natural beauty. The biggest feature of this dam is that it is surrounded by the hills and dense forests of Dalma Wildlife Sanctuary, which adds to its beauty. During winter and holiday season, thousands of tourists come here to enjoy picnic and boating. Tourists get mental peace in its peaceful and pollution-free environment. Apart from this, the history of the Subarnarekha Project located within the submergence area of the dam and the sunken ancient temple here also remain a major center of tourist attraction, which shows a glimpse of its amazing architecture when the water level decreases.

During the inspection, the Chief Minister also highlighted that the biggest benefit from the development of any tourist destination should go to the local residents and youth. Developing Chandil Dam as a global tourist hub will provide a huge boost to the hotel industry, homestays, local transport, guide services and traditional handicrafts trade. When modern eco-tourism activities start here, new employment and self-employment opportunities for the youth of rural areas will be created on a large scale.
