Model Colony Lake aka Lakaki Lake

This weekend I visited a beautiful place in a beautiful city. Lakaki lake or the Model colony lake as people call it is a stone's throw from the busy Ganeshkind road

and the F.C Road. This was a place like an oasis in the desert of busy streets. The lakaki lake is on it's way to becoming one of Pune's most beautiful natural reserves without a doubt, with gentle grassy mounds and green shrubs encircling the lake.

Walking path: Over three quarters of the lakes circumference is a railing and a walkway. The walkway is covered by trees on one side and is laid with stones.

No Hawking Zone: There are no hawkers allowed (at least as of the moment).
Silence Zone: The lake falls in a silent zone due to nearly 100% residential area around it.
Timings: 6am to 9am and 4pm to 6pm

Birds: The lake has some birds in the water and the trees are such that encourage the birds of different kinds to come in.

Cleanliness: The lake was reasonably clean with just around 2 bottles seen in it, btw the lake has a No Plastics policy
