The Moosakhad Dam situated in the mountainous forest area of Chandauli district is a major tourist attraction. Built to solve water shortage in the drought-prone areas of eastern Uttar Pradesh, the Moosakhad Dam is one of the largest irrigation projects in the region. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is an alluring and serene place. Tucked in the silence of nature, one can sit for hours gazing at the sky and water. The natural surroundings of the reservoir and dam attract a variety of wildlife. The view here is even more picturesque in the monsoon.
