    An okayish new tourist attraction in Coimbatore. . The vibe in this place is really good ,but government has to take measures to maintain this place well ..or else it can turn like every other place . . As of now things look fine and not too bad even though all the excercise like thing is already broken . . Boating looked fun , even though I didn't go for boating cause the time was already up and then it was gonna Rain so they stopped the tickets . One things to note is the water is smelly and really bad . If accidentally fell into the water you could probably get infected 🦠 . Deposits given will be returned back once return after boating . . Overall good place . I would request the higher authorities to make sure to maintain this place for longer life of this place and community friendliness

    Visitors must be careful to not litter and needs frequent cleanup. The area needs more illumination.

    Loved the new additions and the boating experience. The corporation has done a wonderful job in renovating the lake but still a long way to go since I noticed a lot of plastics and liquor bottles at the shoreline of the lake which should be cleaned. Hope the corporation takes steps to stop the public littering the place then it will make a great destination for some relaxation. The other part that contains the floating bridge is so cool and a great place to spend some time privately.

    Excellent place for a short hangout. There is no entry fees. However it may be soon expected. Boating has recently been started which is a great attraction here. Exellent parking space for both cars and two wheelers. Good place for photography . Laser show conducted here on the month of June was really a beautiful experience. Reach ing the location is also very much easy . The nearby surrounding lake is under construction and development .

    We went there for an evening walk, as there was no rush we were able to enjoy the walk. A boat riding service also started there. It's perfect for an evening outing. You can enjoy the Sun set.

    At a distance of 1 km from Coimbatore Junction, the Ukkadam-Valankulam Lake is a serene lake situated in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. Located between Trichy road and Sungam bypass road, it is one of the popular places to visit in Combatore. Ukkadam Lake or Ukkadam Periyakulam is spread over an area of 1.295 sq. km and has an average depth of 19 feet. The lake is fed by canals derived from the Noyyal river. The lake also receives water from Selvachinthamani lake located upstream in the north and drains water. The lake has an outlet connecting it with Valankulam lake. The water can be released through four sluice gates located on the south side of the lake. A railway track connecting Coimbatore Junction and Podanur passes over the lake. In 2010, the lake was taken over by Coimbatore Corporation on a 90-year lease and announced a beautification project at the cost of INR 49.5 million in 2015. As part of the lake beautification and restoration project, the city corporation has set up floating decks, a walkers' plaza, a children's play area, non-motorized tracks, and food kiosks. They also laid a 1.2 km stretch of road exclusively for two-wheelers and beautify the tank bund by installing solar-powered lamps and steel fences. Popularly called the Marine Drive of Coimbatore, the road was inaugurated on 8th June 2015, by the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and helped ease traffic congestion in the Ukkadam area. The lake is a paradise for bird lovers. As per a study on bird diversity conducted in 2013, about 48 species of avifauna belonging to 20 families were recorded. The highest bird population was observed during January and February. One can spot various birds including little grebes painted storks, and purple moorhen as part of Coimbatore holiday packages.

    This place is so beautiful, well maintained and clean. In the morning it looks like a painting, the mountains in the background feel like someone has painted those mountains. A lot of parking space is also available. Morning walks here give you the essence of nature.

    So sad about this lake and how polluted & poisoned this water will be....today I have taken this picture from lake...the dying fishes ....I saw many pelicans on the water here, I hope those birds also going to die after eating these fishes from the lake.... A humble request to the local administration...please take care & save this lake please...

    This lake feels like just another lake in the city. However, the sunsets can be worth capturing. Also, parking can be a challenge as there's no separate parking area for the lake. One more point to know is that the banks of the lake have become Mini garbage dumps and hence you might want to get outta here as soon as you take a sunset snap!
