Message from Akhilesh Rathod

Nakki Lake, located in the Indian hill station of Mount Abu, is a sacred and ancient lake with a fascinating legend behind its creation. According to Hindu beliefs, the lake was dug out by gods using their nails for protection against a wicked demon. It is a popular tourist attraction known for its scenic beauty, boating opportunities, and nearby attractions like Toad Rock and Sunset Point. Visitors can also explore the Raghunath Temple and Maharaja Jaipur Palace located near the lake. Don't forget to check out the spot where Mahatma Gandhi's ashes were immersed in this holy water back in 1948.
