It is very big and nice dam sarrounded by ayodhya hills. The dam inside the very nice forest.I things is...the road going this dam is very adventurous and also dengerous because of elephants of this forest

Newest dam in Purulia..but dam is very beautiful.. maybe journey is very long from baghmundi. But after reaching there you'll forget everything.. must visit this place .. you'll take hotel also in front of the dam .. one of the best offbeat place in Purulia..

from my point of view, Murguma Dam is a very beautiful place. It is situated in Jhalda, West Bengal. Murguma Dam is surrounded by hills, forests and many small islands within it. The view here is very attractive. There is a resort next to it where you can stay for the night. That is all .

A place where I found every thing to be with the nature. This Less crowded by tourists place is a fantastic holiday destination for you and your family. If you visit the place in the spring you can swim in the dam. You can enjoy a fabulous sunset under a "Palash tree". You can watch " Chchou" dance too.

Nice place for weekend, picnic. Great views of real nature. But remember no hotels or resorts are available there. Some local food or tea stalls are there. People are very kind there. The water is not overflows every time,it is only happens when its monsoon. For better views and experience try to go between October and March.

It was nice journey from Kolkata to Ayodhya hill. You will move inside the dense forest of the extended Dalma Range. These are the areas full of Elephants and other wild animals. After reaching the foothill you will start driving up the hill. Roads are good particularly this is built up after the new govt. taken charge. A very well conceptualized project to built a road like this. A great tourist attraction. It will take 30 minutes from the foothill to reach on the top of the hill. On the top you will find a huge hydel project. You can enjoy the place. The nature lovers will love the place

Winter is the best time to visit here in fact Ayodhya hills. And Muruguma Dam has decent view. Local people use this dam water for their daily works.
