BADKHAL LAKE AND PARSON TEMPLE

BADKHAL LAKE AT FARIDABAD (HARYANA)
BADKHAL LAKE
Badkhal Lake
                     Badkhal Lake was a natural lake situated in Badkhal village near Faridabad, built in 1947 in the Indian state of Haryana, about 32 kilometers from Delhi. Fringed by the hills of the Aravalli Range this was a man-made embankment. Owing to unchecked mining in neighbouring areas, the lake has now totally dried up. There are functional Haryana Tourism restaurants in the vicinity. A flower show is held every spring here. Its name is most probably derived from the Persian word bedakhal, which means free from interference. Close to Badkhal Lake, is the Peacock Lake, which is another picturesque spot. It is an important biodiversity area contiguous to Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary within the Northern Aravalli leopard wildlife corridor.
