Bellandur Lake

Lake

😐 Most criticised & polluted lake of Bangalore offerd a new look tonight. About 50m of the main outlet a concert space is constructed to protect the dirty water plants. The discharged water was clean. But beyond the construction it was full of water plants which emits very bad smells. People often mention lake, water, polluted, city, Bangalore, good, Bellandur, Lake, beauty, maintained,

    Bellandur is the largest water body in Bangalore city also the highest polluted lakes in India. if the government restore this lake it will be a biggest step towards to the water scarcity in Bangalore and the surrounding towns. also in future it could be a tourists spot.

    Lake is very dirty, catches fire at times and gets dirty smelly froth. Now local authority took heed of it and started restoration work, its going good hope this help the lake getting back the lost beauty. It's a huge lake and as a citizen it's a duty of each individual to protect their water bodies.

    Its real beauty can be seen in evening. It can be a source for water for bangalore. But without good maintenanace its highly polluted. During heavy rains froth covers the lake and roads nearby. Nearby atmosphere has a chemical smell

    The direction given by Google to the lake for walking is incorrect. It takes to a closed gate. Lake is all dirty and closed.

    Highly polluted lake. Many a times has caught fire. Nice place though to capture sunset with its vivid colours over a water body.

    Bellandur lake is nature's gift to the Bangaluru city. Nice place to walk along the shore in the evening to relax and njoy the natural beauty. Now a days it is being known as the foam lake as toxic fluids being released to it by some industries which is very discouraging. It used to be a bigger lake but the demand for local housing constructions has ruined of its vastness and beauty.

    One of the largest lake of Bangalore, and one of the most polluted lakes. Froth and foam used to rise high up in the air .. fire on the lake also was common. Now the lake is being rejuvenated .. work is going on and you can cycle or drive around in a two wheeler if you are curious .. quite some birds like kites and egrets can be seen .. After rejuvenation this should be a beauty ..

    Bellandur Lake is a lake in the suburb of Bellandur in the southeast of the city of Bengaluru and is the largest lake in the city. It was used for landing amphibious aircraft during British rule.It is a part of Bellandur drainage system that drains the southern and the south-eastern parts of the city. The lake is a receptor from three chains of lakes upstream, and has a catchment area of about 148 square kilometres (37,000 acres). Water from this lake flows further east to the Varthur Lake, from where it flows down the plateau and eventually into the Pinakani river basin.
