Introduction The name 'Salem' appears to have been derived from ‘Sela’ or Shalya which refers to a place surrounded by hills, as in the inscriptions. Salem has a vibrant culture dating back to the ancient Kongu Nadu. Local tradition claims Salem as the birth place of Tamil poetess Avvaiyar. What is Salem noted for: There are many things in Salem that are noteworthy by virtue of its location and social set-up. 1. The Stanley Reservoir: The Stanley Reservoir is the heart that pumps the life giving water to the farmers of the Cauvery basin who suffer the vagaries of Indian monsoons. 2. The district is rich in mineral deposits like Magnesite, Soapstone, Dunite, Limestone, Quartz, Felspar, Granite and Iron ore. 3. Mango fruits from Salem are enjoyed and much sought after, specially the variety Malgoa, which is the pride of Salem besides a number of other newly introduced hybrid varieties. I.

The area of these hills is also popular for coffee plantations and orange groves, along with an orchidarium, which is run by the Botanical Survey of India.

The town gets its name from the lake located at its center - in Tamil 'Yeri' means 'lake' and 'Kaadu' means 'forest’. The highest point in Yercaud is the Servarayan temple, which is situated at a height of 5326 feet. Hence the Yercaud hill area is called Shevaroy Hills.

This park is mainly known for its bird species, like the white peacock and small multicolor cranes.
