Fifty one kilometer south of
Udaipur lies JAISAMAND
Lake, one of the largest
artificial lake of the world.
Fourteen kilometers in length &
nine kilometers in width, the
lake has a circumference of
nearly eighty eight kilometers.
It was built by the Maharaja
Jaisingh, who on it's
inauguration on 2nd June, 1691
walked around it distributing
gold equal to his own weight in
charity. He built Six Chhatris
(cenotaphs) with finely
embroidered elephants in front,
the temple of Lord Shiva in the
center on the embankment. Close
to Jaisamand is the game
sanctuary, which is spread over
an area of about 45 kilometers &
has a motor able road. The
sanctuary shelters wild animals
like panthers, wild bear,
spotted deer, sambhars etc.
