★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is very beautiful place with beautiful Aravli mountains surrounded.but surprised to know that people are not understand the difference between Sagar and jalmehal.sagar is lack situated near Amber and jaygade and jalmehal is situated on the way to Amber 4k.m before. A very nice water body near Amer is a picnic spot and gives a nice and cooling experience . But unfortunately , this year there was very less rainfall and our experience was also relatively dry.
One of the best designed lake is turned into one of the worst maintained lake. So much waste and plastic bottles has been dumped into the lake.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Tal katora lake also known as ‘Alligator Tank’ is located at link road (kanwar nagar – brampuri). This lake adjoins back portion of the temple of Govind dev ji, built mainly at the time of establishing Jaipur. Unlike Amer Sagar, this lake was not there to fight Water Scarcity. The purpose of both of these lakes were somehow not same. The purpose behind Sagar was to clear problems of water usage, whereas Tal katora was a symbol of greenery and attraction. The king gave a well-designed look by making a circular garden at the midst of Tal katora. If we talk about this lake today, I feel shame to say that “Tal Katora stores sewerage and dirty water of nearby locality”.
See the change between 1727-2015 , A place where people used to come for amusement and feel the natural beauty at that time, is now just a dirty place to solve sewerage issues. Somehow we, the people are responsible for such changes. These are not just lakes but are the gifts by our king to us to fight the problem of water issues in Jaipur that he himself faced.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Talkatora lake is an artificial lake north of Jaipur City Palace.
Talkatora means a bowl floating in a lake.
Before Jaipur city came into existence, there was a large lake & a pond called Rajamal pond.
When Sawai Jai Singh II built the palace complex, Talkatora lake was retained within palace complex & the Rajamal pond was left outside the palace complex for public use.
Talkatore was once full of crocodiles. Sawai Jai Singh II enjoyed watching them & he used to feed them.
The forest around the lake was the hunting ground for the royals.
Badal Mahal used to be the hunting pavilion, then known as Shikar Odi.
It was built along the southern side of Talkatora lake in 1727.
Badal Mahal has two octagonal chabutras with flat roofed Chattri at the corners enclosed by latticed windows & curvilinear roofed pavilion in the centre
Until few years ago, water channels of the lake were blocked by the rapid urbanization & it became the dumping ground.
Presently it has been renovated fully & there are no crocodiles.
