We visited Agara Lake on one relatively free Sunday evening, while looking for a place to hang out for 2 to 3 hours, with our 5 year old. We remember seeing almost dried out lake few years back, and it was really amazing to see the beautifully renovated lake, with greenery around its periphery.
This lake is spread across 95 acres of land between HSR Layout and Koramangala Region in Bangalore. We heard that some citizen activists, along with the help of government restored the dying lake. Since then it has become place of attraction for nature lovers.
