The Rangadhamuni Lake, popularly known as IDL Lake, in Kukatpally, Hyderabad has undergone a remarkable transformation. The lakefront area is now a major leisure spot with a dedicated pathway, ample seating space, unique light fixtures, and landscaped gardens.
The Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) took up the beautification works at a cost of Rs. 9.80 crore. The uneven road has been replaced with a paver blocks walkway made of cobblestone and granite flooring. Stepped and cubicle seating have been provided for visitors to relax and enjoy the lake views.
Towering light fixtures that look like red flowers are the main attraction at the lake. A dedicated toilet block and dustbins have also been put in place to maintain hygiene.
The 568-meter-long main bund abutting the Mumbai National Highway is in close proximity to multiple residential colonies and gated communities, which makes this lake a happening hangout spot in the city.
The IDL Lake transformation is a welcome step towards making Hyderabad a more livable city. The lakefront area is now a beautiful and inviting space for people of all ages to enjoy.
