Mekedattu, Karnataka
The Cauvery river has been the root of many disputes between the two states it flows through; Karnataka where it begins and Tamil Nadu where it ends, flowing into the Bay of Bengal. As the mighty river courses its way, here in Mekedattu, it forces its way through deep gorges and passages so narrow that they say a goat could jump over the river. Mekedatu means 'goat's leap' in Kannada.
