Dholi Dhaja Dam, Surendranagar

This is a dam of Surendranagarcity, Gujarat state, India. Which situated on highway of Surendranagar to Rajkot. Which is a dam without gates. When the dam overflowed then whistle rang by the government to inform the people. Before some years there is constructed big canals to divert the flow of narmada holy river towards this dam. So that the  problem of water for people was solved. Before that many problems regarding water were faced by people. After monsoon, when the dam overflowed, there is a fantastic atmosphere. During this time, on weekends people come and enjoyed the much. There is a temple of lord Shiva in the dam. Due to overflowed the dam, people have to go through water, which is a favorite moment for people to walk in water. Before many years the original temple hide, when the new temple constructed.
