There is also a rainwater harvesting reservoir within the premises with a capacity of holding 15 lakh litres of water.Another great addition to this initiative is the Siddha Healing centres inside caves within the nature park. Moonlight dining is another spectacular option for, where visitors can dine right under star-studded moonlit sky.

Rajiv Anchal, a film director, an artist, humanist and a sculptor, is the one behind the initiation of this huge project.
