    Amazing place in Salem. If it has proper maintainance surely it will attract lot of tourist. If you come early you can see lot of birds. Need more boats to allowed with proper security. Best place to bring your kids and they will acquire some knowledge about nature. Cons there is no shops to buy food, better can carry food. Government should take measure to proper maintainance and have to add some water related activities. Here you will buy fresh fish at morning..

    Lake was clean and neat especially in rainy days when the water level is high it looks even more beautiful but the park needs some maintenance. Swings and the pathway there is not so good. But the park is clean and natural. You can feel the nature's essence there. Especially in the evening the whole experience is different. The climate and sunset makes it more pleasant and calming. Definitely visit this place before sunset. Best place to relax and enjoy with nature

    Very beautiful 😍❤️ and very amazing natural place!Proper lake function can ease the impact of floods and droughts by storing large amounts of water and releasing it during shortages. Lakes also work to replenish groundwater, positively influence water quality of downstream watercourses, and preserve the biodiversity and habitat of the area.

  • 5/5 Tamilnadu Tourism I. 5 years ago on Google
    Also called Kannankurichi Lake. Just a couple of kilometers from the city.In Salem, this has become the main tourist spot. Beautiful lake with mountains in the background. The lake has park and seating arrangements made for visitors to comfortably enjoy the visit. Lake is renovated by Salem people and NGO. Really a good initiative by Salem people to renovate this lake. for more details http://www.tamilnadutourisminfo.com/mookaneri-lake/

  • 3/5 Sathees 0. 4 months ago on Google
    Mookaneri is a beautiful lake with spectacular birds view but needs a powerful camera or Binocular to enjoy. Area around lake has to be developed well for tourist attraction. As of now you can visit for 10 to 15 minutes. Best place for walking.

  • 3/5 hari k. 4 months ago on Google
    The place was a bit untidy but there is no entry fees or ike that. U can enjoy the view of the lake from the road. No place for siting arrangement.
