Beautiful Lake Pichola was enlarged by
Maharaja Udai Singh II after he founded the city. He built a masonry dam,
known as the Badipol, and the lake is now 4km long and 3 km wide.
Nevertheless, it remains fairly shallow and can actually dry up - in
severe droughts it's possible to walk to Jagniwas and Jagmandir island.
