First proper look at Danau Koto Panjang

Continuing from Free ride to Muara Takus.


Close to the road to Muara Takus lies a big lake longer than the 20 km road.


After visiting the temples of Muara Takus I was brought to an edge of the lake close to the main road.




















It is a man-made lake called Danau Koto Panjang.









As told in the article Free ride to Muara Takus it was formed after a downriver part of Kampar river was constricted with a dam in the 1980s...
