Badkhal Lake was a former natural lake situated in Badkhal village near Faridabad
, in the Indian state of Haryana, about 32 kilometers from Delhi
. Fringed by the hills of the Aravalli Range
this was a man-made embankment. Owing to unchecked mining in neighbouring areas, the lake has now totally dried up. There are functional Haryana Tourism restaurants in the vicinity. A flower show is held every spring here. Its name is most probably derived from the Persian word bedakhal, which means free from interference. Close to Badhkal Lake, is the Peacock Lake, which is another picturesque spot.
