Introduction:
In Shivpuri there is a grand lake that attracts the tourist attention by its shimmering water and evergreen forest encircling it. It is a tourist’s paradise. The statue of the mermaid, situated on the paling, is the most eloquent representation of the transcendence in life; expressed in a more subtle way by Emerson, “Every great and commanding moment in the annals of the world is the triumph of some enthusiasm.” Sakhya Sagar Lake truly exalts the triumph of enthusiasm of the Nature to embellish itself in all possible way.
History:
Perhaps that is the reason why, from the Manier River two Lakes emerged. One is the Sakhya Sagar and the other is Madhav Sagar. Since the River Manier performs the most vital role in maintaining the balance of the biodiversity of Nature, it is regarded as the life giver of the Shivpuri National Park. The river also gave out numerous streams and perennial rivers, in its course. The lake is impregnated with animals like Marsh Crocodile, Indian Python, Monitor Lizard and also some Reptiles.
Description:
The animals generally reside in the water of the Sakhya Sagar Lake. Therefore a railing has been constructed circumscribing the Lake, to enable the tourists have a view of the graceful lake. There is also a Broad Pier and a Boat Club; this is an elegant structure with a glass pane. This is also known as the Sailing Club. Once you stand at the railing of the mesmerizing river, you can hardly come back from the graceful site. The charm of the flickering water will enamor you beyond limit so as to “carry you into recesses of feelings otherwise impenetrable” (William Wordsworth).
