This Kamuni cheruvu or kamuni lake seems a sort of Mysterious one in the midst of hills.The lake has hills its three sides.Located in the deep of forest of Suraveedu gram panchayat of Venkatapuram mandal,khammam dist.Even in the time of horrible summer days,this lake will not be in short of water.Water comes through the hills which are covered three sides of the lake.Water is abundant through out the year.
Though these surroundings are now no trace of human activity,There must be some kind of human life in the past.Because there is a shakti temple in this deep forest...We wanted to go there ..but our guide said it takes further two hours walking as there is no other way to go by vehicle.It was about to sunset.And no doubt we may meet some bears without any second thought.This place is famous for them.
Once upon a time all this area under the dynasty of Kakatiya kings.It is quite common here to find Shiva lingams when digging for the purpose of wells or some construction.Suraveedu people told me that this lake was created by some Gods..that's why no short of water happens for it.
Another amazing thing about this is its water keep oozing from the land at the distance of some 200 meters away... slowly water come up and it forms like small streams...you can't see any pipe like instrument to flow water from lake to some distant place where we find water-flow like streams.Water here is very cool and crystal clear.
Next time I will try to go to that temple in that forest...and post with photos if possible.People said temple almost dilapidated ...debris like things are there.It got me much more interested.o.kay..let's wait and see..!
Very interesting . Hope our govt. will not divert the water to cause it to dry :-).
