A splendid Chowpatty or Chau-pati surrounds the lake from three sides. The crowd of locals and tourists from far and wide makes this place bustling, especially during the sunset. In the evening the sun is gradually hiding behind the mountains, and some rays are falling on the water. The entire lake is shining because of that. This scene is so exquisite, which is indescribable in words; you should visit there to live in this Awesomesauce moment and capture the gorgeous view of the sunset.

History
To ensure water security for the betterment of the people, initially, a dam was constructed on luni river by the emperor Anaji Chauhan (Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan's Grandfather) in the 12th century (1135 - 1150 AD), which resulted in the Ana Sagar Lake and rightly carries his (Anaji Chauhan) name. The lake of Ana Sagar is one of the earliest lakes in the state of Rajasthan.
In the age of modernization and urbanization, we are gradually disconnecting from nature, although we know the fact that nature is a great healer of any problem and absorber of negativity. So, visit the Ana Sagar lake and reconnect with nature.
