The lake offers pacific calm, beauty and above all, boat rides near Purana Quila to relax oneself off the ground at the plains of water. One may rest oneself away from the rush and hush of the city and spend a nominal price for a soothing evening. Timings for the boat ride is restricted from morning 7 A.M to 5 P.M and Mondays are off, rest if the weather’s supposedly light and breezy then one must not miss the chance of a tranquil day at the lake with friends or family or loved ones.
