Nothing will come to your ears except the sound of water in the meghla complex. All the colorful boats run on batteries.

Three hundred feet high hill after the huge lake. That is why the sound of vehicles moving outside cannot disturb the peace of your senses.

While walking in this pollution free lake, you will see different species of aquatic birds playing. The branches of the tree on the head are touching the water. In all those trees, the wood cats are jumping, the birds are playing and the birds are chirping.

The cable car is swaying over the head while the boat is spinning. At a total length of 1600 feet, the car is able to evoke a thrilling feeling in the minds of the travelers who come from one hill to the other over the lake.

Then the cool air of the clear water of the lake will make you feel better. Mechanics will not disturb you there.

There are two hanging bridges on either side of the picnic spot. One can cross the mini safari park located on the hill, cross the zoo and cross another bridge.
