Fooding depends on the choice of ones place of stay, but apart from Peerless Resort, food is ordinary in other places and nothing to claim much in respect of their cullinary excellence.As regards shopping, there are some makeshift shops selling local artefacts, among those terracotta items of Panchmura(near Bisnupur) are worth mentioning.

| A BOAT RIDE Boating at the water enclosed by the dam is definitely a memorable experience.There is a deer park on the other side of the lake that can be reached by boat.A drive along the dam by ones private car or hired auto gives a fine overview of the vast panoramic beauty of the adjacent area.There is a Kali temple at Ambikanagar,3 km away, considered to be a holy place among the local people. |
