On the South Eastern boundary of the city is the seasonal rivulet Sukhana
choe. Water through it used to flow away in the rainy season. The
planner of the city through their imagination, created a lake by obstructing
the flow of rain water through the Sukhana Choe.A three and half km long
dam was built to create a reservoir of water. Now known as Sukhna
lake. People generally come here for a morning or evening
walk. It consists of an eating place, children’s park. It also has facility
for boating and rafting for the adventure seekers. A major hit with children
and grown-ups alike. Children's train attracts the children. At one end
of the Lake are the premises of Lake Club. The club management takes care
to provide facilities for water sports and recreational activities. Water
sports has become an annual feature. The environment friendly people of
Chandigarh take part in its desilting operation every year. |
