Hazaribagh jheel is a series of artificial lakes with seven parts all on different levels so that water spills over to the other lake through a spill channel. It is an engineering marvel which conserves water and supplies to people living in Hazaribagh. It was constructed by Britishers in 1831 when they were building a jail in Hazaribagh. It is one of the beautiful lakes in the city. In 1831 when a jail was building by britishers they require huge amount of clay soil,so four big creators were digged up later they become lakes. The lake is surrounded by AIR station or Urban Haat on the north, Ranchi – Patna Road on the east, the main town of Hazaribagh on the south and the renowned Indira Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya on the west. There are four distinct parts into which the lake is divided. The best view of the sunrise and the sunset is enjoyed at the end of the third lake, which happens to be the largest one. This is the ideal place for photographers. One can also visit the Swarna Jayanti Cafeteria, which is the only eatery in this region.
