Badkhal Lake
About
Badkhal Lake was a former natural lake situated in Badkhal village near Faridabad , 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 Badhkal Lake, is the Peacock Lake, which is another picturesque spot.
