History of Fateh Sagar Lake

Build in the lake was first constructed by Maharana Jai Singh. However, the lake got its name from the king Maharana Fateh Singh who made considerable additions to the lake. Chronologically this was the second artificial lake constructed in Udaipur with the first being Lake Jaisalmand. 200 years after its construction the earthen dam built in the times of Maharana Jai Singh got washed away during torrential floods, so in 1887 Maharana Fateh Singh built the Connaught dam to mark the visit of the Duke of Connaught i.e. son of Queen Victoria.Thus, this restoration of the lake led to its renaming as Maharana Fateh Sagar Lake.

Lake Fateh Sagar is a massive artificial lake in the city of Udaipur and one of the four lakes in the city that is rightfully called the City of Lakes. It was constructed back in 1678 and houses several small islands within the lake and the majestic Aravalli hills binding the view and making it grander.
