Why to visit Ranchi Lake
This lake is an old reservoir that was built during the colonial era in India and is located at the foot of the picturesque Ranchi Hill. The lake was created in 1842 by Colonel Onsely, who also served as its architect.
The water body offers boating opportunities as well as the chance to see aquatic species. The water reserve is a favourite stop for many migratory birds, which use it as a temporary home during the winter months before taking flight once more.
The Municipal Corporation of Ranchi Town and the civic authorities look after the lake, which is a very clean and well-protected place. The lake is deemed suitable for supplying the whole water supply for Ranchi town.
The Ranchi Telephone Exchange is next to the lake. In addition to having a Shiv Mandir at its summit and providing a panoramic view of the entire city, Ranchi Hill is a well-liked tourist site.
