Lakes and Waterfalls: Natural lakes and waterfalls are the largest sources
of water. They not only enhance the beauty of nature but also provide water for
people leaving in the mountainous regions.
River: River is another vital source of water.
Hydroelectricity is produced from river water. Canals are built on the river
sides for field irrigation. They are also an essential means of transportation.
A type of human food is also obtained from rivers. Rivers have played a very
important role in the life of men. They have served, as trade routes from the ancient times. Before the building of roads and railway tracks, most trade was
carried on by boats and ships along rivers. This was the reason that most towns/cities in the earliest times were built near river.
