Lake Joka

You cant miss them. Seven of them in a campus of around 150 acres. Not 'lakes' in the true sense of the word, but surely bigger than what people usually call a pond. Simply put, anything thats bigger than a pond is a Lake :)

This is the satellite image of IIMC. As u can see, there is island like patch of land surrounded by the lakes on all sides. I have a strange feeling that the island is artificial. Might be. Well, that island is the Academic Complex, er ...sorry, the lecture halls and the administrative office. So to get to the lecture halls we have to follow the roads along the lakes.

Its quite an experience, especially the nights in winters, with a light mist on the surface of the lakes. And in the summers, when the lakes are still and the lights from the library make a clear reflection, its even more enchanting.

Now the waters are green and the lakes are full. Blame the monsoons.

I showed these pictures to my friend, and she felt that the lakes looked ominous. Well, it was the time you see, 6 in the morning.

Nevertheless. Lake Joka.
