Water shapes both the geography and the spiritual life of the Jagdalpur region.
* **Indravati River:** The lifeline of the Bastar region, this broad river flows westward near the city and famously plunges over the Chitrakote falls. * **Kanger River:** A pristine, rocky river that flows through the Kanger Valley National Park, creating the scenic Teerathgarh falls. * **Dalpat Sagar Lake:** A sprawling urban lake spread over 350 hectares, built over 400 years ago to harvest rainwater for the city.
