Vengaivasal, which was a peaceful village till few years ago, has been urbanized already. With a lot of factories and high rise buildings, this has become yet another busy locality of Chennai's subrubs. Fortunately, there is still this beautiful Pond, which has escaped from the eyes of the real estate giants. Surrounded by the trees, with the steps down to the pond with full of fresh water, this place gives us a typical rural feel. This is one of the most beautiful Surviving Waterbodies of South Chennai.
This pond occupies an area of about 3 acres. It is located in Vengaivasal Main Road. The nearest landmark is Sugam Mills.
Happy travelling.
Note: As per a report, there were about 650+ waterbodies in Chennai region till 1980s. Today, only a fraction of them exist. And, most of those surviving waterbodies hardly have water and even some of them that have water had been shrunk badly. In Chennai, there are tank roads without tanks nearby and lake view roads without any lake in the vicinity. There is a high possibility that even the few waterbodies that we have today might vanish in the near future. I thought of visiting the currently surviving waterbodies of Chennai and its suburbs and write about them in my blog as a series.
