Siliserh Lake
Siliserh Lake is one of the most wonderful and serene lakes in the world which has been emboldened by a number of myths. Siliserh Lake is a solitary water land creating ripples of attachment with the visitors who visit it even once. You’ll be so enchanted by its Arcadian ambience. One could spend hours by simply watching the waterfowl around the lake. The reservoir was created by Maharaja Vinay Singh in 1844 so that the water could be channeled to Alwar, transfusing life into its barrenness. Vinay Singh named this new lake Siliserh in honour of his queen Seela, and also built her a small white palace set high upon a rise overlooking the waters.
Siliserh grew into a favourite resort of the Alwar kings, particularly of the whimsical Maharaja Mangal Singh (1874-92). The area also has sprawling gardens for its visitors which are eventually used as picnic spots. The lake is picturesquely set amidst the forested slopes of Aravalli Hills. The lake attracts a lot of migratory birds adding colour and music to the scene. But for the hustle of the whispering woods and chirping birds, the place promises total calm and is ideal for a trek.
