Shamirpet Lake
Shamirpet Lake, also known as Pedda Cheruvu, is an artificial lake located about 24 kilometers north of Secunderabad in Hyderabad, Telangana. Built during the Nizam era in the 19th century, the lake was popularized by the Sixth Nizam, Mehboob Ali Pasha, who often entertained his guests here.
The lake was interconnected with the Musi River to prevent flooding, a common practice during the Qutub Shahi and Asaf Jahi periods.
Today, Shamirpet Lake serves as a popular picnic spot for families and nature enthusiasts. The serene surroundings, lush greenery, and calm waters make it an ideal place for a peaceful retreat.
The lake is also home to a variety of birds, and visitors can enjoy birdwatching, especially during the winter months when migratory birds visit. Nearby attractions include the Jawahar Deer Park, which houses a variety of deer and birds, and several resorts and private dhabas offering accommodation and dining options.
