According to you all. What is the best time in a day to explore any place 🤔?
About me. Mostly I explore in evenings and nights 😃🌇🌉.
As in previous blog of Day 66 Bhopal is known as City of Lakes and also it is one of the greenest cities in India 🏡🏞️.
It is having natural + artificial 17 lakes and 5 reservoirs⛲.
Let me tell you a story🤠!
There have been many dynasties in India. One of them is Parmar dynasty and their kingdom was centred around the Malwa region of central India 👑.
Malwa region is a large part of today’s Madhya Pradesh.
In 11th century the Kingdom of Malwa region is ruled by King Bhoj 🤴.
During his rule once he suffered from a skin disease and nobody was able to cure him 😟.
Then one day a saint came to him and told him to combine 365 tributaries making a reservoir and by bathing in it your skin disease will be cured 😃.
Then instantly King Bhoj called his engineers and ordered them to build up a huge reservoir as said by saint 🫡.
They found a place near Betwa river which was around 32 KM away from Bhopal 🏞️.
But it was found that they were able to get only 359 tributaries 😨🤯.
In order to fill this shortage a Gond commander Kaliya gave the address of an invisible river and merged the tributaries of this river with the reservoir thus the number 365 was completed 😌😃.
And when King Bhoj took bath in it, he was cured 🥰☺️.
This lake was also called Upper Lake or Bada Talab or Big Pond till March 2011 🏞️.
Because in March 2011 the name of Bada Tal was changed to Bhoj Tal 🫡.
Along with lower lake and upper lake Bhoj Tal forms the Bhoj wetland 😍.
