The island is formed by the [[Kaveri]] and [[Kollidam River]]s.<br /> <br /> ==Geography==<br /> The Kaveri River diverges at the [[Upper Anaicut]], a dam at the island&#039;s westernmost point. The Kollidam River, the first and largest [[distributary]] of the Kaveri, flows to the north of the island, while the continuation of the Kaveri flows to the island&#039;s south. While the Kollidam continues flowing east past the island unimpeded, the [[Grand Anaicut]] dams the Kaveri at the island&#039;s eastern end, splitting the river into four streams. One stream flows northeast for a short distance, joining the Kollidam and cutting off Srirangam Island on its eastern end. The island is {{convert|19|mi|km}} in length and {{convert|1.5|mi|km}} wide. The town of [[Srirangam]], a prominent [[Hindu]] [[Vaishnavite]] pilgrimage centre, is located at the centre of this island. Most of the island forms part of the Srirangam zone of the [[Tiruchirappalli Municipal Corporation]] and includes the suburbs of [[Srirangam]], [[Thiruvanaikaval]], [[Srinivasa Nagar, Tiruchirappalli|Srinivasa Nagar]] and [[Gitapuram]].&lt;ref&gt;https://censusindia.gov.in/2011census/dchb/DCHB_A/33/3313_PART_A_DCHB_TIRUCHIRAPPALLI.pdf&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> {{commonscat|Srirangam}}<br /> * {{cite book|title=Gazetteer of South India|author=W.
